Which of the following rulers was the first to unite the franks under one rule in the late fifth century, serving as an example for later leaders?

otto i
clovis
charlemagne
henry iii

Even though all of these are remarkable leaders, the correct answer to this question would be option B)"Clovis."

Clovis was the first king to unite all of the Frankish tribes under one ruler, and established that kingship would be passed down to his heirs.

Otto I, Charlemagne and Henry III were influential leaders, but they weren't the first to unite the Franks.
