@FaakedLillebror During the reign of Diocletian that was no longer the case. The empire was divided into 4 tetrachies. The capital was transferred to Mediolanium and later to Sophia (which was outside of Italy) while in the east the capital was and remained for another thousand years Constantinople. Ask any historian and he will confirm that even before the goths sacked the city, Rome was no longer the capital of the empire.
@FaakedLillebror Aurellian was Moesian. Nevertheless, he is still regarded as a Roman emperor. Emperor Trajan, the greatest of Rome's emperors, was Spanish
@FaakedLillebror The Roman empire started from Rome but with time during the late empire the "Roman" identity became much more extensive. You could still be "Roman" even if you have never even seen Rome. Read about the Byzantine empire and you will find that it was a continuation of the Roman empire. Granted though, it was somewhat different to the classical Roman empire.
this makes NO historical sence? the only arabs the romans EVER fought was the Sabayin, and they got slaughterd... plus, that is NOT the way a roman legion would wage war...
