Why was otto 1 declared emperor?

Earlier in history Charlemagne was declared Roman Emperor by Pope Leo III when he rescued the pope form an uprising in Rome. Charlemagne was meant to be the emperor of Christendom in western Europe and calling him Roman Emperor symbolised the independence of this part of Europe and the papacy form the eastern Romans, who had been interfering with the popes. Charlemagne went on to create what historians call the Carolingian Empire, which lasted for about 120 years. It ended with the extinction of the Carolingian dynasty due to continuous infighting. France broke away from Germany and Italy gained independence. When Otto regained Italy he had an empire and decided to call it Roman Empire after Charlemagne's empire.
