Gottschalk
Gottschalk, sometimes rendered as Godescalc (Latin: Godescalcus; died 7 June 1066), was a prince of the Obotrite confederacy from 1043 to 1066. He established a Polabian Slavic kingdom on the Elbe (in the area of present-day northeastern Germany) in the mid-11th century. His object in life seems to have been to collect the scattered tribes of the Slavs into one kingdom, and to make that kingdom Christian. "A pious and god-fearing man", Gottschalk effected the Christianisation of the Slavic tribes of the Elbe. Read more on Wikipedia
