  The Carolingian Renaissance -...

  The Carolingian Renaissance was a pivotal moment in European history, marking a revival of learning, culture, and intellectual activity during the reign of Charlemagne and his successors. To fully appreciate this movement, it is essential to understand the historical context from which it emerged. In the centuries following the fall of the Western Roman Empire, Europe experienced a period of cultural and intellectual decline often referred to as the Dark Ages. Classical texts were lost or neglected, education was limited, and much of the knowledge from antiquity was confined to isolated monastic communities. 
  Charlemagne, who became King of the Franks in 768 and later Emperor of the Carolingian Empire in 800, envisioned a unified Christian realm grounded in both faith and knowledge. He recognized that in order to strengthen his empire, he needed educated clergy, literate administrators, and a shared cultural foundation rooted in Roman and Christian traditions. Inspired by this vision, Charlemagne initiated a series of reforms aimed at restoring learning and promoting intellectual growth throughout his territories. This commitment to education and scholarship laid the groundwork for the Carolingian Renaissance. 
  One of the most significant influences on this movement was the Church. As the central institution of medieval Europe, the Church played a crucial role in preserving what remained of classical knowledge. Monasteries, in particular, became the hubs of literacy, where monks copied ancient manuscripts and engaged in theological study. Charlemagne capitalized on this religious infrastructure by encouraging the establishment and reform of monastic schools. These institutions became centers of education not just for future monks, but also for clergy and even lay officials serving in the empire.

  Siam was just a much different name for what's now referred to as Thailand. The Siamese are the people who live there, though they're never ever called as such any longer. 
  The most current and right clarification concerning the Tai people's beginnings claims that Guangxi, instead of Yunnan, is the Tai motherland. Today, Guangxi is home to a big population of Tai people referred to as the Zhuang. According to the Khun Borom folklore, Tai people who were not affected by the Chinese settled in what's now Biên Ph in modern Vietnam around 700 AD. Pittayawat Pittayaporn (2014) assumed that this movement occurred at the time of the 8th and 10th centuries, based upon layers of Chinese loanwords in proto-Southwestern Tai and other historic information. Chinese growth and mistreatment could have triggered Tai-speaking tribe to travel southwestward down rivers and over lower enters Southeast Asia. 
  Thailand is a fascinating country, with its own culinary arts, culture, history, royalty, infrastructure, and influence on the world. To learn more about these “Thai” people before they were called Thai, when they were Siamese, is to learn about those people’s roots.
