732 A.D.
Hello to everyone. Today I am going to interview Charles Martel.
Q: Hello Charles thank you for meeting with me.
A: No problem.
Q: What was the cause of the battle of tours?
A: The cause was a Muslim army trying to take over one of the Holy Lands, it was a very brutal war.
Q: That is what I heard. Can you tell me a little bit more about the battle?
A: Yes, On October 10, 732 AD, Christian forces under my leadership attacked a Muslim army . I held the post of Mayor of the Palace in the Austrasian empire which included most of modern day France, Belgium and the Netherlands along with parts of Germany. The battle is taken as a turning point in the continuing invasion of Christian lands that had been taken by the Muslims since the invention of the Muslim religion in Arabia.
Q: Wow that was some war. What would you regret most bout it?
A: Well I wouldn't say I would regret anything, but I would want to change how I treated my troops, I would have wanted to more supporting.
Q: Thank you foryour time.
A: Your welcome.
