Project Charlemagne/order

Chronological and Genetic Order
The Order of Charlemagne gives the number of generations between a person and Charlemagne (747-814). Wipert de Nantes has order = 5, which means that there are 4 generations between him and Charlemagne. Put differently, Wipert is Charlemagne's great-great-grandson. However, Wipert's parents are great-grandchildren of Charlemagne. This means that Charlemagne's share in Wipert's genes is as if Wipert were his great-grandson.

The tables below give both the chronological Order of Charlemagne and the difference between the chronological order and the genetic order. Wipert is the oldest for whom genetic and chronological order deviate.
