Holy Roman Empire

Holy Roman Empire brings together several realms, from 922 to 1806. At its greatest recorded extent, in 1453, its lands covered about 1.21 million km².

In 962 the German king Otto I was crowned emperor by the pope in Rome, renewing Charlemagne's imperial title. The resulting empire, called Holy Roman from the 12th century, joined the German lands with northern Italy and Burgundy, and later Bohemia. Its emperors were elected by leading princes, a system fixed by the Golden Bull of 1356. More about Holy Roman Empire.
