"And The Holy Roman Emperor held his power in trust from God as the protector of Christendom."

On this point, I agree entirely. Also, it should be noted that the Holy Roman Empire was never "officially" dissolved. Admittedly, Kaiser Franz abdicated, but HM had no authority to end the Empire itself, nor did the Congress of Vienna ten years later.

There are still bishops in the Electoral sees. Now if only the Margrave of Brandenburg, Dukes of Saxony and Bavaria, et al. would send in their ballots, perhaps we could clear up this Euro mess once and for all.

The gentle reader is asked to bear in mind that your humble correspondent has not included the "biggies" (Stalin, Mao Tse Tung, and Hitler) because his frame of reference ends with the destruction of Christendom, ca. 1918. Almost every contest since that time has been merely a falling out among banditti , as they divvy up the spoils

You had a very interesting and informative profile page. I was intrigued by the reference to Christendom ending in 1918. Can you elaborate on this a little?

Thanks!

Good morning,

This statement of yours intrigued me. Is there a possibility that this could happen? Do you know if there is a movement to get this done? After all, the EU is clamoring for a leader, maybe something like this would provide that leader.
