It’s funny because you could argue that all are true. 395 — split of the Roman Empire and Visigoths going rogue 480 — western Roman emperor was murdered and the dual emperor arrangement officially ended 486 — final defeat of the western Roman Empire, never to return 1204 — Constantinople sacked, like the sacking of Rome, was a harbinger of the fall. 1475 — Theodoro falls to the Ottamans marking the last remnants with traces to the Roman Empire

Makes sense.
