How did a person become emperor of the holy roman empire?
The title of emperor was not hereditary, though in later times it was effectively so. When the old emperor died, a college of electors elected a new one from among those whose titles and experience fitted them for the position. The college of electors consisted of seven people, three bishops and four prince electors. The prince electors were kings or counts palatine, and their places in the college of electors was hereditary. After the emperor was elected, he was not immediately emperor. His official title at that time was King of Germany. In the Middle Ages, the final step in becoming emperor was to be crowned as such by the pope. This did not happen immediately, and in some cases only took place after years.

What are some comparisons of the Roman Empire and the Roman Republic?
Unfortunately historians make a confusing use of the tem Roman Empire. They use it in two senses. One is the common one of territorial possessions. The other refers to the period of rule by emperors which followed the Roman Republic. In the territorial sense, Rome already had an empire during the Republic. Much of her imperial expansion occurred during the republican period. The Roman Republic and rule by emperors can hardly be compared. The Republic was headed by two annually elected consuls. The other officers of state were also elected annually, except for the censor, whose term of office was 18 months. The emperors were absolute rulers who exercised personal power; that is, they were despots. They appointed the officers of state and the imperial bureaucracy. The senate was turned into an instrument for the emperor's power.
