History[]
The Charles Martel Society was founded as a nonprofit organization in 2001 by William Regnery II, an heir to the Regnery Publishing fortune. The organization is named after Charles Martel, who successfully defended Francia against an army of Muslim invaders at the Battle of Tours.[4] It formed the basis for the National Policy Institute, which was founded by Regnery and some of his associates in 2005.[5]
