>Early in Charlemagne's rule he tacitly allowed Jews to monopolise money lending. At the time, lending of money for interest was proscribed in 814 because it violated Church law. Charlemagne introduced the Capitulary for the Jews, a prohibition on Jews engaging in money-lending due to the religious convictions of the majority of his constituents, in essence banning it across the board, a reversal of his earlier recorded general policy.[112] In addition to this broad change, Charlemagne also performed a significant number of microeconomic reforms, such as direct control of prices and levies on certain goods and commodities.>His Capitulary for the Jews, however, was not representative of his overall economic relationship or attitude towards the Frankish Jews, and certainly not his earlier relationship with them, which evolved over his life. His personal physician, for example, was Jewish,[113] and he employed one Jew, Isaac, who was his personal representative to the Muslim caliphate of Baghdad.[114] Letters have been credited to him that invited Jews to settle in his kingdom>tl:drCharlemagne granted Jews monopoly on money lending than took it away after making them millioners. If not for Christianity Jews wouldn't have so much power as they have today.
