Well it was founded as the successor of the western empire. The emperor was to be crowned by the pope in rome and until Frederik the second of Hohenstaufen enhanced the rights of the German princes it was even somewhat centralized. After that it only Charles V. came close to make it again into a real empire - he even dreamed of a united catholic empire until some mad monk named Luther get to reform the church.
Between those emperors and after that the empire ceased to be something to be called upon.

Not that the pope had any legitimate authority to do that though - he'd had nothing at all to do with who was Emperor in Rome, so the HRE's claim to be the Roman Empire was very weak. The Byzantine claim on the other hand was very strong (at least until 1204, and if you want until 1453) because they came directly from the Roman Empire.
They didn't come from the Roman Empire in as much as they were the Eastern Roman Empire.

Erm, Transylvania is an elector? It is 1707 and the GOL still exists? I give up.
Protestant Prussia about to become emperor of HRE without being a member of it.
Oh, come on. That's not fishy (though it would be if Prussia was played by the AI).
I've done this many times as Orthodox Russia and Catholic England/GB. All you need to do is vassalize the electors. Though, I admit, this shouldn't be the case and only HRE members should be electable
I didn't know that this could happen. Playing as Ottos and Aquileia was my vassal since 100 years back or something. Right before this screenshot was taken, I annexed Papal State (second time), who were located in Salzburg. After I annexed them, Aquileia turned into Papal State... and now the pope is my vassal?
If Pope is annexed (PAP doesnt exist on map), and if there is a Catholic theocracy somewhere, then it can get an event that lets it reform into PAP (by welcoming Pope to its court or whatever). This happened to you, but i agree its strange, they should probably add is_vassal = no as requirement for event.
Yeah I have seen it happen before, just not... to a vassal. And especially not to someone who is a vassal of a muslim nation.
Can't, they aren't muslimDemand annexation!

How did you manage to set your *insert it's name here* (that mini-list from the upper, right corner) to display your navies?
