jan 5, 870 - Treaty of Mersen

Description:

divided the Carolingian Empire between the surviving sons of Louis I, Charles II of the West Franks and Louis the German of the East Franks.

These newly established boundaries roughly created borders of modern day France and Germany. Disagreements over the middle kingdom regions of Alsace and Lorraine resulted in friction between France and Germany for centuries to come.
