Taxation by the mayor of the palace, 743
Pippin III and his brother Carloman, Mayor of the Palace of the Kingdom of the Franks, regulate at a church meeting the legal authority of the Church. The Church is given the right to demand the tithe of its subjects. By the 6th century, the office of the mayor of the palace is endowed with more and more power, and thus more and more important in the Frankish Empire.
