The HRE's curse was just like with the Lombards their power base in Northern Italy, which set them at odds with the whore in Rome. While the Pope often had little to lose from the French and others increasing their power as long as they left the Church alone any strengthening of the HRE's authority would lead to his own claim to power over Northern Italy being threatened, it being in his interest that the HRE stayed weak and disscentralized.

Everything and everyone is destine to ceases exist. Because time.
