Dukes of Champagne In
Merovingian and
Carolingian times, several dukes of Champagne (or
Campania) are known. The duchy appears to have been created by combining the
civitates of
Rheims,
Châlons-sur-Marne,
Laon, and
Troyes. In the late seventh and early eighth centuries, Champagne was controlled by the
Pippinids; first by
Drogo, son of
Pippin of Herstal, and then by Drogo's son
Arnulf. •
