Through the title of "Holy Roman Emperor" which is a continuation of the Western Roman emperorship granted by the Pope
The title itself was created before the HRE even came into existence

Charlemagne was given the title by the pope cause the pope was scared of him and wanted papal states. The "Holy" part denoted his specific relationship to the pope and Christendom.
