Can it be argued that Rome didn't really fall in 476?
Yes, it can be argued that Rome did not fall in 476 AD. The event that happened in 476 was that Odoacer, who controlled Italy, deposed the last Roman Emperor of the West, a six year old boy named Romulus Augustulus. When that happened, he and the Senate sent a commission to the ruling Roman Emperor of the East asking that he govern both the East and the West, reuniting the Roman Empire, which had been divided into halves in 395 AD. The Western Roman Senate continued to operate in the West (I don't know if it was operating in Rome or Ravenna), and the last record we have of it was a greeting sent to the Emperor in about 605 AD. The East Roman Empire continued to try to control the west for hundreds of years, though with poor success, and continued to operate until Constantinople fell to the Turks in 1453. Romulus Augustulus, by the way, retired to a very nice estate in the country and lived the rest of his life there.

To the south rose the Palatine, whither at sunset the herds, entering by the gate called, from the lowing of the cattle, the Porta Mugonia, were driven, and penned for the night under the protection of Pales, the god of shepherds, in a walled enclosure in which the villagers themselves took refuge when attacked by enemies. Here, then, in the sheltered valley of the Forum, we find all the needful elements of the life of the little village-the well, the market-place, the hearth, the storehouse, the ruler's hut, the seat of the old men, and the sheepfold on the hill above.
