Clovis I (or Chlodowech or Chlodwig, modern French "Louis", modern German "Ludwig") (c.466 - November 27 511 at Paris), was a member of the Merovingian dynasty. He succeeded his father Childeric I in 481 as King of the Salian Franks. These were a Germanic people occupying the area west of the lower Rhine, with their own center around Tournai and Cambrai, along the modern frontier between France and Belgium, in an area known as Toxandria.
