The Holy Roman Empire evolved from the Carolingian Empire, which fragmented into several territories after Charlemagne's death in 814. In 962, Otto I was crowned emperor, marking the formal establishment of the Holy Roman Empire, which sought to revive the legacy of the Roman Empire in a Germanic context. Over the centuries, the empire became a complex political entity composed of numerous semi-autonomous kingdoms, principalities, and city-states, with the emperor's power varying significantly depending on the strength of local rulers. The Protestant Reformation in the 16th century and the Thirty Years' War further challenged the empire's cohesion, leading to its gradual decline and eventual dissolution in 1806.
