Template:CountryInfoThe Holy Roman Empire (HRE), also known as the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation after 1512, was a polity in Central and Western Europe, usually headed by the Holy Roman Emperor. He lasted for about a thousand years.
A common joke is that the Holy Roman Empire was not in fact, holy, Roman, nor an empire. Not holy refers to how HRE was not unified by 
religion in his middle-latter days, and was not solely 
Catholic and accepted 
Protestantism, which was seen as a heresy by Catholics. Not Roman refers to how HRE is actually 
Germanic, nowhere close of being 
Roman. Not an empire refers to how an Empire is, at least in principle, a singular state. The HRE was a series of independent princedoms that existed as a loose confederation, and the title of Emperor itself was an 
elected position, rather unusual for an Empire.
History
On 25 December 800, Pope 
Leo III crowned 
Frankish King 
Charlemagne as "Roman emperor", reviving the title in Western Europe for the first time since the fall of the ancient 
Western Roman Empire in 476.
When Charlemagne died in 814, the Frankish Empire was eventually passed to his grandsons and was divided into three separate realms by the Treaty of 
Verdun in 843: 
West Francia, 
Middle Francia (
Lotharingia) and 
East Francia. In 962, 
Otto I was crowned emperor by Pope John XII.
