At the height of the Roman Empire the city of Rome became the biggest city that ever existed in antiquity. It is estimated that it had 1-1.4 million of inhabitants, a mind boggling figure for that time when population levels were much lower. It was not until the 19th century that a European city (London) reached the one million mark. Rome was developed into a monumental city, full of temples, large and beautiful public buildings, triumphal arches and statues. The most famous structures were the Circus Maximus (the Chariot Racing track) and the Colosseum.
The portion of the Roman Empire that survived after all power in Rome was reduced to nothing like its former self was the Eastern half of the empire which lasted until 1453.

The term fall of Rome refers to the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire (the eastern part continued to exist for nearly 1,000 years). The fall of the western part of the Roman Empire was a process. Many factors contributed to this. The main one was the invasions by Germanic peoples (Vandals, Alans, Sueves and Burgundians). This part of the empire crumbled under the weight of these invasions. It lost political cohesion. There was a lot of infighting and a string of usurpations. The Romans were unable to respond to the invasions. Within some eighty years all the lands of this part of the empire were lost. Many historians think that prior to the fall of this part of the empire there was a decline of the Roman Empire as a whole.
By 117 AD, the Roman Empire has reached its peak. That is true, the roman empire peaked at that time. But later, the eastern roman empire, or byzantine empire, controlled most of the old roman empire plus some territory to the east, but I think that the best response to that question is 117 AD

The term "Rome of the East" often refers to Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire, which was seen as a continuation of the Roman Empire after the fall of Rome. Other examples include cities like Antioch and Alexandria, which were significant centers of culture, trade, and governance in the Eastern Roman Empire. These cities maintained Roman architectural styles, legal systems, and administrative practices, reflecting the influence of Roman civilization in the east.

First, the Roman empire was to big to control so the government split it into 3 regions. It was to confusing for the Roman republic so the regions were falling apart slowly. Eventually, each region was taken over by other civilizations surrounding Rome.
No similarities. The Roman Empire was an ancient empire and the Carolingian Empire was a medieval one and therefore related to two totally different societies. The only thing was that Latin was the language of the church, bureaucrats and intellectuals.
The invaders of the Roman Empire pillaged the areas they invaded. This was common in those days.
The city called Byzantium, Constantinople, or Istanbul. This city was the capital of the Eastern Roman or Byzantine Empire, and the city and the empire were styled after Rome.
