524. Charlemagne: Pagan Killer (Part 2)
Dominic Sandbrook
So in 782, there's a famous atrocity after a particularly violent uprising by Saxons who had supposedly accepted baptism and submitted to Charlemagne and then kind of turn against the Amasca priests, destroy churches and all of that. So Charlemagne orders that 4,500 prisoners be beheaded on a single day.
