As it turns out, if you have any European ancestry, you are a direct descendant of Charlemagne. You are also a descendent of every other single person alive in Europe (at least if they had any descendants at all) from the lowest beggar to every King that lived in that timeframe.

But most of it includes some bastards, younger children and females who do not inherit most of the time. The question is not who has some of his dna, too many people, but who has some sort of inheritance claim.
