What does the German eagle represent?

What president declared war on Germany in 1719?
There was no "Germany" as a single political entity in 1719. There was the remnants of the "Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation", but that wasn't Germany. There were numerous predominently German-speaking principalities within that empire and outside it, but none of them were "Germany" either. So I suspect the answer is "none." As to whether there was a president in 1719, I don't know. There was no president of the United States for obvious reasons. But there might have been the title "president" in some context somewhere (although I don't think any heads of state had that title at that point in history). Perhaps some organization had a "president" (in the sense of "one presiding"). But do such organizations "declare war"? Hardly. It all sounds like this question will turn up nothing.

What happened to Charlemagne's empire?
Charlemagne's empire was divided into three kingdoms, in accordance with the will of Louis the Pious, Charlemagne's successor. This was formalized and clarified by the Treaty of Verdun in 843. The nominal title of emperor lasted for a while, but had little meaning. In the end, the kings stopped acknowledging attachment to the empire, and the last person claiming the throne of the Carolingian Empire, Berengar I, died in 924. Two of the three kingdoms survived. One became the kingdom of France. In another, Otto I resurrected the title of emperor and so the Holy Roman Empire came into being, which was, in turn, ancestral to Germany.

What is the connection between the barbarians and the western roman empire?
The relevance of the Germanic barbarians was that they invaded the western part of the Roman Empire, took over most of its lands and carved it up, each forming their own kingdom. Therefore, their actions led to the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire. Barbarian was a word the Romans borrowed from the Greeks. It basically means foreigners and had the derogatory tone of uncivilised. It expressed the view that foreigners were uncivilised. To the Romans the barbarians were all the people who lived outside the Roman Empire. The barbarians who were relevant the western part of the Roman Empire were the Germanic peoples who lived north of the Roman Empire and two Germanic peoples who had been allowed to settle in parts of the Roman Empire by the Romans (the Franks and the Visigoths). Two Germanic peoples, the Vandals and the Sueves, and an Iranian-speaking people, the Alans, invaded Gaul, which was part of the western part of the Roman Empire. They then moved to Spain and north-western Africa. Spain was, in turn taken over by the Visigoths who moved from the eastern part of the Roman Empire, where they had been allowed to settle, to south-western France and then to Spain. Another Germanic people, the Burgundians, settled in eastern France and another one took over north-eastern France and Switzerland. The Franks expanded from their base in Holland south of the River Rhine and Belgium, where they had been allowed to settle into northern and central France. The angles and the Saxons from northern Germany and the Frisians from northern Holland migrate to Britain in waves and eventually took over this island. Eventually, the Germanic barbarians took over the lands of the western part of the Roman empire and former their own kingdoms in tis former lands.

Why did Frederick the wise not turn Luther over to the pope?
Frederick the Wise was a bit sympathetic to Luther's theology, but the bigger reason for his actions were the political repercussions of his teachings. In the 1500s Germany was not united as a country. Rather, there were many small kingdoms all in a very weak confederation called the Holy Roman Empire. At the time, anyone who was Christian was Roman Catholic and the pope was the head of the church, and therefore he had control over peoples' salvation, which would be more important to them than their allegiance to a king. By supporting Luther, Frederick the Wise was able to cut off the influence of the pope and establish more power for himself.
