The Holy Roman Empire included most of modern Germany. In the eastern portion of Charlemagne's empire, his heirs lost power to local nobles called dukes. After the last member of Charlemagne's line died, the dukes began electing one of their number as king. One of these kings, Otto I, was crowned by the pope as "Emperor of the Romans" in 962. Otto's lands were known as the Holy Roman Empire and included what is today Germany and Italy.
