What happened with the Franks and rome?
Here by Rome we mean the pope. The western Roman Empire had long fallen by then. The pope asked the Charlemagne, king of the Franks, to attack the Lombards and end their rule in Italy. In exchange, the pope crowned Charlemagne Roman emperor. Italy became part of Charlemagne's empire, which has been called Carolingian empire because it was ruled by Charlemagne's close relatives after his death. Charlemagne also invaded northern Germany and part of Spain. His empire came to cover most of continental western Europe apart from most of the Iberian peninsula, Denmark and Scandinavia, and what was East Germany. Charlemagne was given the title of Roman emperor to symbolise the independence of Italy and the west from the Eastern Roman Empire. Central Italy had been under the control of this empire and the Popes (who were only Bishops of Rome back then) were subordinates of the emperor of the east, even though they had managed to gain considerable autonomy. The alliance with Charlemagne provided the military power for this 'breakaway' from Constantinople.

The "Holy Roman Emperors" were never powerful. The Pope decided to declare Charlemagne (Karl der Grosse, Carolus Magnus) emperor and put a crown on his head, possibly against Charles's desire. His power was because he was king of the Franks, a german tribe ruling what is now France and parts of Germany and the Netherlands. His successors carried the title Roman Emperor but never had the powers of the old Roman emperors. And for the whole period they were even influential they disputed their powers over Europe with the popes. Usually the popes had more power. Within the so-called empire other rulers had the real political and military power. The last Holy Roman Emperor became emperor of Austria when Napoleon declared the title ended saying the empire was neither holy, roman nor an empire.
