rome was finished as soon as they adopted christianity
why create an empire on earth, when there is a kingdom of heaven waiting for you in the afterlife? Hence the shift towards an ever increasing amount of navel gazing, building grand churches, creating large monastic communities, doing large ceremonies, having actual civil wars over paintings and idols and other such bullshit

Rome has stepped up, why ruling over countries when you can rule over souls?
it's like when GB left the unsustainable big colonialism for small portions of of strategic territories all over the world and trade/economy.

>no one ever gave a shit what the pope ever thought, christianity is finished
They said since the beginning of the church, and yet empires have fallen and the Pope is there.
Imho the system of government of the church (election of the Pope, election of cardinals, celibacy and shit) is just too good to fall.
>you're talking about the country that almost broke up last year?
A shitty small island that don't produce (almost) anything, live over finance, but still has a major role as world player "because prestige".
If you've time read Necker's considerations about GB economy in 1776-1787 are actuals in a real funny way.
