Byzantine Empire vs Holy Roman Empire

[MinervaItalica]

Which was the strongest and most influential one?

Explain your opinion.

[Tschaikisten]

Never forgive 1204.

Byzantine empire mantained the true Christian Tradition and the Holy Roman Empire was a corrupted barbaric enterprise that leaded Western Europe to it's current downfall and degeneration. Byzantine Empire was a true empire, inspired by God and respectful of all traditional local rites (as you can see that Greek rite is different from a Syrian rite and from a Russian rite).

The answer is quite obvious.

Unnecessary thread.

[Vyasa]

There's no such thing as the Byzantine Empire. It was the Eastern Roman Empire.

True that.
