The Roman Empire "fell" and became the Holy Roman Empire. Much of the strength of he Holy Roman Empire owes its beginings to Emperor Constantine who in 321 AD declared that he had seen a Cross over the noon sun. and heard a voice say, "Conquer with this." His immediate "conversion" resulted in him declaring all must woship Christ on Sunday, who had formerly worshiped the sun on Sunday. Christians and Jews who still observed the seventh day sabbath had been formerly put to death for worshipping on the Biblical sabbath of the 4th commandment, but now they began to see no distinction between worshiping on Sunday or the Sabbath. This resulted in much confusion and to this day the Roman church claims it is responsible for changing the day of worship to Sunday, even though it is not in The Bible. All the gods of the Roman pantheon were given the names of saints...ie, Venus is Mary, etc. And althought idol woship is forbidden in the 10 commandments the Roman churchs still has many images to this day which supplients believe have powers that are divine.
The Byzantine Roman Empire aka Eastern Roman Empire did become known but the Roman Empire did not seperate till much later because Julius Caesar came into power in the 6th century bc.The Eastern Roman Empire lasted till 1453 and the Western Roman Empire fell a century or two before that. When the Roman Empire seperated or divided was in the 3rd century ad 3 centuries after Jesus Christ died on the cross for us all.

First of all it has to be clarified that it was the western part of the Roman Empire which fell. The eastern part of this empire continued to exist for nearly 1,000 years. The generalisation about the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire is that it fell under the weight of the invasions by the Germanic people. An invasion of Gaul by the Vandals, Sueves and Alans set in motion a process in which the Romans lost political cohesion and within 87 years, they lost of the lands of this part of the empire to Germanic peoples, including peoples who had been Roman allies.
Rome collapsed in 476 A.D. The conventional date for the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire is 476, the year when Romulus Augustus, the last emperor of the western part of this empire, was deposed. The eastern part of the Roman Empire fell in 1453 , when Constantinople was conquered by the Ottoman Turks.

You do not specify which eastern empire you are referring to. If you mean the Byzantine Empire, which is a term used by historians to refer to the eastern part of the Roman Empire after the fall of its western part, it fell in 1453, when the Ottoman Turks captured its capital, Constantinople.
It restructured itself and continued on for another thousand years. Today we call it the Byzantine Empire as it was based on Byzantium, renamed Constantinople.
