Well, its true about the fall of the old western Roman Empire but you flim shows Justinian and Italy and certain parts of Italy was rule by the Byzantines again from 561 until 700. And Justinian wrote letters to Pope John III and Pope John III wrote letters to Justinian. These letters are published in a collection of the Justinian Law Code. The Bishop of Rome still had influence in Constaninople even when the Germans controled Italy. Also, Justinian forced Pope Vigilius to agree with him on comdemming the three chapters to get Africian and Italain and other western Bishops to agree to his religious schemes. This shows that the pope was still important to the Roman Empire.
