Charlemagne formed what historians now call the Carolingian Empire, though it was called the Empire of the Romans at the time (the same title maintained by the Byzantine Empire at that time). His empire went moribund for a few decades, as no emperor was crowned, but it was revived, and in its new form came to be called the Holy Roman Empire. That later empire was destroyed during the Napoleonic Wars, in 1805, just over a thousand years after Charlemagne became emperor.
