B. He stopped the Muslim advance from Spain into France.

Charles, the son of Pepin of Herstal, was the "majordomo" (Mayor of the Palace) serving kings of the Merovingian dynasty. He received the nickname "Martel," meaning "The Hammer," for his leadership at the Battle of Tours in 732, defeating the forces of the Umayyad Caliphate.
