It was primarily spoken in Francia.
After around the 8th and 9th centuries, the Frankish language started to go extinct as it graudaully evolved into Old Dutch. The Frankish language also influenced Old French to become a influencing linkage of Romance dialects, for it's time. The Frankish language also influenced the development of the French, German, and Dutch langauges.
