I searched the "Franks and Gaul" and came up with this picture http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Frankish_Empire_481_to_814-en.svg It's a picture of the Franks conquests, and territories over a period of time. Also it mentions the "Angles" and I had never heard of such people so I searched them on wiki and this was the first paragraph-->
The Angles is a modern English word for a Germanic-speaking people who took their name from the cultural ancestral region of Angeln, a modern district located in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. Ancient Angeln preceded all modern national distinctions and was, therefore, probably not coterminous with the modern culture of the same region.
