It depends on the historical period. The history of Rome lasted 1,200 years. Rome had a monarchy for 244 years (753-509 BC) a republic for 482 years (509-27 BC) and rule by emperors for 503 years (27 BC-476 AD). Under the monarchy the king was the focus of power. Under rule by emperor the emperor was the focus of power. During the republic the focus of power were the consuls (the two annually elected heads of the city and the army) and the senate.

What did Nero do whilst he watched Rome burn?
Historical legend has him fiddling, or playing the lyre, while Rome burned. In reality he did not, but it was a metaphor for the lack of concern he had for Rome and its people; just as Marie Antoinette never said, "Let them eat cake," but it was a way of showing her aristocratic attitude and lack of concern for the welfare of the common people of her time. Nero's real problem was his inability to deal with the aftermath of the crisis in an effective way: feeding and housing the masses of the newly homeless. Unfortunately, he used the opportunity to sieze the land for himself and build a private estate within Rome, and, when this proved unpopular, he blamed the fire on the Christians. Throughout his reign, he showed himself to be weak and ineffectual.

Nobody DESTROYED ancient Rome, they just tried to conquer it. Usually, it was the Byzantine empire that sacked Rome 3 times. But Rome was never destroyed, the real story is this: Rome was low on food, it was vulnerable, everybody was dying from Roman flu, hunger, and thirst. Until the Byzantine empire came the third time and sacked Rome- they took all their riches. When the Byzantium empire got all the riches, he said to the Romans, "I may think about giving you some food..." and he did. The Romans were fit, they were healthy, and ready to battle. They overthrew the Byzantine empire and ancient Rome was at peace again. After that, everybody started making new inventions and now here we are in 2012.
