Heh, fair enough. Well, I didnt mean to chide you, just to well, correct you. Sorry if that came off as a bit harsh or something.

It's okay. I thought it was because of Napoleon conquering Germany that the title of HRE was pretty much useless or something but that's why I don't watch History Channel.
 
No, the northwestern USA will soon fall as Canadian barbarians invade from the north. At the same time the USA will be at war with Iran. After the West Coast and northern Great Plains states fall, the Iranians will push the Americans out, then launch an invasion of North Carolina. Then a man named 'Mojamed' will lead the Mexicans to conquer the United States and conquer Iran.

At the end of it, Iran will be conquered by Mexico, and the only bit of the United States that will remain unconquered either by the Maple-Leaf Barbarians or by the Mexicans will be New York and a few strips of the coast of Connecticut, New Jersey, Delaware, Massachusetts, Maryland, and Virginia.

wow.. that stuff medicinal? :D:eek::D

Well, at that time it had been useless for a long time already, but yes, Napoleon is who destroyed the HRE in the end.
 
As a state, Rome was founded in 753 BC, and fell in 1453 AD.

If we count sovereignty over the former capital as the factor that labels a state a successor state, the Ottoman Empire and then present-day Turkey have the crown of the Eastern Roman Empire, while the Western Roman Empire would be ideally represented by the Papal and (later) Italian state.

If we count the Ottomans, the Romans ended in 1922. Turkey is a Republic.
