The population of the Holy Roman Empire varied significantly over time and by region, but estimates suggest it was around 15 to 20 million people during its peak in the late medieval period. The empire encompassed a diverse range of territories, including modern-day Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and parts of Italy and France. Due to its complex political structure, there was no single citizenship; instead, individuals were subjects of various princes, electors, and other local rulers within the empire.
Seven electors chose the Holy Roman Emperor.
The peoples of the conquered territories became the inhabitants of the provinces of the Roman Empire. Many of them were not citizens because they did not have the concept of citizenship. From 212 BC they became Roman citizens because the emperor Caracalla extended Roman citizens to all free men in the empire.
The Holy Roman empire fell because Napoleon overran many German states and the Western German states joined his Rhine confederation making the Holy Roman Empire obsolete. Thus emperor Francis II. lay down his imperials crown.
Actually, Germany did not exist in the sixteenth century, there were many individual German states in that part of the Holy Roman Empire which came to be what we now know as Germany. The Holy Roman Empire was ruled by the Holy Roman Emperor, and the individual principalities were ruled by princes.
The provincials felt that they were part of the Roman empire because of the aspect of unity. They were governed by the same laws as Rome, and many of them were Roman citizens. They also had the protection of Rome's army and the Latin language was spoken.The provincials felt that they were part of the Roman empire because of the aspect of unity.

i don't think that it was holy because the event of formation of the empire can be said as the treaty between the then pope and the Frankish's king Charlemagne . according to me the pope had used Charlemagne for the formation of the holy roman empire to protect himself as he used to do many illegal work.
There were a great many rebellions during the 1044 years of this empire.

There were many clerics of all ranks selling indulgences.
The three heirs of Rome are generally considered to be the Byzantine Empire, the Holy Roman Empire, and the Ottoman Empire. The Byzantine Empire, also known as the Eastern Roman Empire, preserved Roman law and culture for nearly a thousand years after the fall of the Western Roman Empire. The Holy Roman Empire sought to revive the legacy of Rome in Central Europe, while the Ottoman Empire, which conquered Constantinople in 1453, incorporated many aspects of Roman governance and administration. Together, these empires reflect the enduring influence of Roman civilization across different regions and periods.
