<p>[QUOTE="panzerman, post: 6256415, member: 77704"]I would agree with you. For me the Roman Empire ended when Alaric I (Germanic King) sacked Rome. The other so called Western Roman Emperors where mere puppets to their German masters upto Romulus Augustalus in 476AD. The Eastern Roman Empire based in Constantinople would continue to 1453/ but had a few close calls when the Crusaders looted the capital, the Emperor fled to Nicea. Mercifully Mehmet II finished them off/ now its part of Turkey. However most historians have given them that awfull name, "Byzantine"[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
