Depsite all the interest and usefulness that could carries a discussion on what Ottoman Empire was or wasn't, and on who was the "romanest" of empires, maybe it would be fitting another thread, that wouldn't have as OP "Why did the Roman Empire fall", before we began arguing if Austria-Hungary was the last true roman empire or if it was the Czardom of all Russias?
Those discussions have a direct relevance to the question of whether there ever was a fall of Rome in the first place.
