Every living European is a descendant of Charlemagne and every other European who was his contemporary. You have two parents, four grandparents, 8 great-grandparents etc. That quickly blows up to more ancestors than there used to be people alive back then. The solution is incest, lots of incest, everybody is related to everybody else if you trace back far enough.
