How did power struggles in Italy affect popes and emperors?
There were conflicts between popes and emperors. The first one was over religious issues (1103 -1107) between Pope Gregory VII and Henry IV. It dragged on until 1122. The popes won this religious controversy. In 1080 a new conflict developed between the pope and the emperor. The pro pope forces led by Matilda of Tuscany, who ruled over large parts of northern and central Italy, defeated the Henry V and his supporters in Italy in 1144. The emperor went back to Germany. Political problems in Germany led to the emperors being absent in Italy for 40 years. During this period the cities of northern and central Italy became effectively independent. In 1154 Frederick Barbarossa started one of his five military campaigns in Italy. Originally this was to fight the Normans who ruled southern Italy. However, conflict with the pope soon developed again. Moreover, the cities of northern and central Italy formed a league (the Lombard League) to fight for their independence from the empire. This league defeated the emperor. In the Peace of Constance of 1183, these cities obtained the right of self-governance. After this, the empire gained control of southern Italy. In 1237 Frederick II started a war in Italy to restore imperial control over the cities of northern and central Italy. There was also conflict with the pope again. Italy developed two opposed political factions, the Guelphs, who supported the pope, and the Ghibellines, who supported the emperor. The Guelph Italian cities won and the war and the independence of northern and central Italy continued. After this emperors did not try to re-establish control. The conflict between Guelphs and Ghibellines continued. There were wars between these two factions within some of the cities and between cities.

How will the fall of rome affect the papacy?
Do you mean how did the fall of Rome affect the papacy? There was conflict with Theodoric the Great who created a Ostrogoth kingdom in Italy and in today's former Yugoslavia. However, this was not due politics. Theodoric wanted to preserve the Roman empire and did not interfere with Rome or the Latins of Italy. It was about religion as Theodoric refused to convert to Catholicism and defended the Aryan creed of his people. There was also conflict with the Romans of the east, again, over religion. There was tension between Catholicism and Orthodox Christianity. Later there was conflict with the Lombards who invaded Italy. The pope got Charlemagne, the king of the Franks, to get rid of them. In return he gave him Italy and crowned him emperor. This was the beginning of the Carolingian Empire and of the concept of the temporal power of the pope. Charlemagne also gave the pope land in Italy which became the nucleus of what was to became the Papal States.
