    The Holy Roman Empire was not holy, Roman, or an empire.

      It had an emperor and thus was an empire.

      Well, if an emperor is defined as a ruler of kings, and basically every town in Germany (or “The Germanies”) considered itself a tiny kingdom, then empire is appropriate and accurate?

        “Emperor” and “empire” mean different things. Like “gamer” and “game”.

          In the sense that you can’t have one without the other, yes. So if we accept emperor Norton as an emperor, which many do, it stands to reason he had an empire.
