Bcuase they were so far advanced in their technology at the time. for ex, the aquaducts, the sewers systems, etc... Also their army, if they conquered it, it was theirs, so the bigger the better they were. Technology is also said to be their downfall, but perhaps that was because of pride.

What sort of factors led to the fall of the western roman empire?

There are several reasons the Roman Empire fell. 1, The water pipes that ran from the aqueducts were made primarily of lead so the entire population was slowly dieing of lead poisoning which caused most people to die before they turned 40. 2, As the Roman Empire grew, it took a lot of slaves from conquered lands and put them to work in the Roman cities which caused a decrease in demand for workers which resulted in mass numbers of homeless people unable to find jobs. 3, To keep the unemployed people from revolting, the government had giant festivals and numerous holidays when people received free food and entertainment that the Empire couldn't afford. 4, The Empire was too big for the Roman Legions to adequately defend so mercenaries were hired to help with defence even though they were seldom very loyal to Rome and frequently switched sides. 5, Every time an Emperor died, there was another civil war causing the empire to become weakened. 6, When the Roman Empire was split in half by Constantine, and the capitol moved to Constantinople the Germanic tribes were just starting to press on the borders of the empire and the division of the empire only further weakened it. 7, A significant number of the emperors were completely insane and made very unwise decisions that ultimately caused the fall of the Roman Empire.

Why was the holy roman empire called the fake empire?

"The Holy Roman Empire is neither Holy, nor Roman, nor An Empire," Voltaire. It began as an Empire under Charlemagne. When his 3 grandsons divided his empire, it became something like NATO. Like NATO it became a mutual defense pact where some parts would send troops for the common good and some nations would not. Finally Napoleon ended it.
