25. The Crown
The events of Christmas Day 800 transformed Pope Leo III's desperate alliance with Charlemagne into a formal new order that would define European civilization for the next millennium. When Leo suddenly placed a golden crown on Charlemagne's head during mass, the wounded pope who had fled Rome became the maker of emperors. This episode explores how Leo transformed his greatest vulnerability into unprecedented strength, creating political precedents that would endure for a thousand years.
