This is an excellent question that should be asked to Wall Street.
In the real sense, "the Roman Empire" has risen and has fortuanetly already fallen a long time ago.
In the figurative sense, it may very well still exist under another name: "Wall Street".

Yes. Type "Roman Empire" on Google and you'll see. In fact Europe was part of the Roman Empire since about half of it was in "Europe" as now defined, but the non-European parts - Asia Minor, Syria, Egypt, N Africa - had more than half the population, and the Eastern Empire (largely outside Europe) became the more important part over time.
The Roman Empire covered what is not Italy, France, Spain, England, parts of Germany, Africa, and the Middle East.
The capital of the Roman Empire was Rome until 284. In that year the emperor Diocletian created a co-emperorship with himself in charge of the eastern part of the empire and Maximian in charge of the western part. He also designated also an imperial capital for the eastern part of the empire, which was Nicomedia (in northwestern Turkey), and an imperial capital for the western part, which was Milan (in northern Italy). The emperor Constantine I moved the capital of the eastern part to the nearby Byzantium, which he renamed Constantinople (present day Istanbul). The capital of the western part was moved to Ravenna (also in northern Italy) in 402.
Today's France and England.
It could be argued that the Roman Empire has never fallen because its influence still remains with us even today.
