The rome city was built by roman people and it stayed as a shadow of rome until the Renaissance, then return to being a shadow of rome after many years later when late modern day record everything.
you see, religion did play a big part and it was the reason why rome fell.
You should try reading those links. You would learn a lot.
They don't say what you think.
"Holy Roman" empire was not ancient Rome. I know the name is confusing, it was popular. But they are not the same thing.
Read your own links, they show you're wrong.
And weren't you just telling me that wikipedia and history channel were in some conspiracy against you?
Now you trust them? Well, good, read it. Lear how stupid you're sounding.

Rome the city, not Rome the empire. Are you still confused about the difference?
you see, religion did play a big part and it was the reason why rome fell.
No. That is an incorrect statement.
I suggest you do some reading. Maybe start with the links you or I have included in this thread.
Because you're making yourself look like a retard.
You think I'm Stefan Molyneux?
I'll play along. If you're going to be delusional, lets make it fun.
I'm also under your bed right now.
Haha, did you think Rome the city was the same thing as Rome the empire?
Are you trying to say that the Byzantine empire never existed, or that the Roman empire never fell?
There was no pope in the Roman empire.
All of your links support my claim and prove you're retarded.
Did you even read them?
