When did the Roman Empire fall (your thoughts)?
#8
Well, i think the end could be the fall of Constantinople in 1450(?)
The Greeks held on and considered themselves Roman, (the precise term they used eludes me) well after that. While East and West were divided, they we smaller parts of the whole.
I think to say it fell at these early dates is to ignor the east as part of the Empire, which is not really the case.

I like these threads as there are a lot of opinions and information to glean from them.
