We were in Tokyo over New Year this year and had a great time visiting temples and the sales with the locals. The temples had a great atmosphere with lots of people, great food stalls and general feeling of everyone being happy and enjoying themselves.
Answer Wiki. Yes. To quote the famous line, âThe Holy Roman Empire was neither Holy, nor Roman, nor an Empireâ. The Roman Empire was centered on Rome, Italy, and is considered to have lasted from 27BCE/BC until 476CE/AD. It was formed from the Roman Republic before it, with roots stretching back from the 8th century BC.
Depending on how you define the Roman Empire: 1  The united empire lasted 426 years. 2  The Western Empire lasted a further 81 years, for a total of 507 years. 3  The Eastern Empire lasted a further 1058 years after the split, for a total of 1484 years.
