The Franks built a powerful early medieval kingdom. Where did the lands of that kingdom lie?
In the far north, in what are now Denmark, Norway and Sweden
In the lands of present-day France, Belgium and western Germany✓Correct answer
In the Balkans and Asia Minor, around the eastern imperial capital
In the British Isles, in what are now England and Ireland
Explanation
The Franks were a Germanic-speaking people who moved into the north-western provinces of the old western empire and built their kingdom across Gaul and the Rhine lands. Placing them in the far north is the classic error, because it confuses them with the seafarers who raided those same Frankish coasts three centuries later.
