            Confirmed by the pope, at least at the beginning, which for Christians at the time was as holy as it could get. At the start, it controlled Rome and was actively trying to copy certain Roman motifs. Even at the start it had multiple different language groups, If the Austro-Hungarians had an empire, then so did the Holy-Romans.

            Voltaire was really just being a sassy bitch. /s

      Now I got flashbacks from Advanced European History. Been 35+ years and you hit me with this. I won’t be able to sleep tonight.
