Okay, I definately need to find more sources. I'm starting to see a major trend in overstatement on Wikipedia. I know of eHistory, but is it reliable? Do you know of any good general history sites on the interwebs?

I meant the rebels execute the Emperor.

I meant OTL WRE in a seperate timeline. Say Odoacer crowns himself Roman Empire instead, or alongside, King of Italy. Is this possible? And again, could the Lombards revive the WRE?

That's along the lines of what I was thinking. I just can't think of a battle that if went differently, would change the Byzantine's fate. If the Byzantines eventually retake Anatolia, would they allow Turkic settlement in at least the eastern regions? Also, could the Crusaders simply decide not to pillage Constantinople?

Well, I meant more loyal on paper. That number seemed too high for me, but if there were many feudal domains, could the Empire split if things went differently?

But could "Germany" consolidate itself like France or England?
