∙ 15y agoThere can be no precise definition of the Roman Empire because its territorial holdings chaged with time. Nevertheless, the Roman Empire was the post-Republican phase of the ancient Roman civilization, characterised by an autocratic form of government and large territorial holdings in Europe and around the Mediterranean. The term is used to describe the Roman state during and after the time of the first emperor, Augustus. At its territorial peak, the Roman Empire controlled approximately 5,900,000 km² (2,300,000 sq mi) of land surface, mostly around the Medeterranean, but also reaching north to Germany and England, and east to nearly encompass the Black Sea, and including Armenia and the valleys of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. The year 476 AD is generally accepted as the formal end of the Western Roman Empire but the Empire continued in the East, until it fell to the Ottoman Turks in 1453 AD.

Did feudalism start in Europe?
This depends on the definition of feudalism. If feudalism is regarded is identical to manorialism, then it started in the places that had been parts of the West Roman Empire, when that empire fell, at the start of the middle ages. Another view of feudalism is that it is a medieval system for the control of relatively large countries with weak central governments, and by this definition, it started about four hundred years after the fall of the West Roman Empire, in France and the Holy Roman Empire with the division of the Carolingian empire.
