Name of the Franks

http://dbpedia.org/resource/Name_of_the_Franks

The name of the Franks (Latin Franci), alongside the derived names of Francia and Franconia (and the adjectives Frankish and Franconian), are derived from the name given to a Germanic tribal confederation which emerged in the 3rd century AD. The Frankish Empire rose to the main successor of Roman imperial power in Western Europe, and as a result, the Franks ultimately gave their name to both the kingdom of France, and to Franconia, one of the stem duchies of the Holy Roman Empire. rdf:langString
