Lyonesse was one of the last parts of the western empire to be conquered by barbarians, having resisted the Franks until 486 under the last magister militum per Gallias, Syagrius. After conquest it formed the Neustrian division of the Frankish realm and was the base for further expansion south. In 640 Aquitania was lost and King Dagobert was killed at the Battle of Castras, resulting in the disintegration of Frankia and the effective independence of Neustria under Dagobert's second son, Clovis II.

| - Lyonesse was one of the last parts of the western empire to be conquered by barbarians, having resisted the Franks until 486 under the last magister militum per Gallias, Syagrius. After conquest it formed the Neustrian division of the Frankish realm and was the base for further expansion south. In 640 Aquitania was lost and King Dagobert was killed at the Battle of Castras, resulting in the disintegration of Frankia and the effective independence of Neustria under Dagobert's second son, Clovis II. In 652 Neustria was invaded by the newly resurgent Visigoths, using rebellions of the Armorican Britons as a pretext. Heavily outnumbered, Clovis fled to his brother's court in Austrasia, where he plotted to regain his throne for the rest of his life. In Neustria the Visigoths installed one Caesarius, a leading member of the local Gallo-Roman aristocracy, as a client king, while Armorica became an independent ally.
