A proposito di questo titolo

Charlemagne is remembered as a warrior king and a patron of learning, but his economic reforms were just as revolutionary. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how Charlemagne's monetary system—centered on the silver denarius—helped unify his sprawling empire. They delve into the Carolingian silver boom, the standardization of coinage across Europe, and the practical measures like price controls and market regulations that turned feudalism into a functioning economy. Discover how a single coin, the silver penny, became the backbone of trade from Aachen to the Spanish March, and why Charlemagne's economic policies shaped medieval Europe for centuries after his death.
