That depends on which invasion you are referring to:

Between 100 to 500 CE you have several invasions of different parts of the Roman Empire:

  • 167- The tribe of the Marcomanni crosses the Danube and invades Dacia. Marcus Aurelius is co-emperor with Lucius Verus
  • 257 CE - The Franks invade Gaul and Hispania. At this time Gallienus was Roman Emperor with his father Valerian. The Franks continued as sometimes invaders and sometimes allies of the Romans on until the fall of the Roman Empire
  • 258 CE - Goths invade Asia Minor. Gallienus and Valerian were still sharing the position of Emperor.
  • 410- Rome is sacked by Alaric I, king of the Visigoths. A little prior to this time the empire was split between the two sons of the previous emperor Theodosius I. The Western empire was then ruled by his son Honorius and the Eastern empire by his son Arcadius.
  • 442 CE - Anglo-Saxons and Jutes come into conflict with the Romans forces in Britain. Valentinian III was Emperor of the Western Empire and the conflict/revolt/invasion continued under various Emperors until the Roman Empire really didn't exist anymore
  • 447 CE - Eastern Rome loses to Attila the Hun. Theodosius II, son of Arcadius is Emperor of the Eastern empire
  • 455- Valentinian III is assassinated and succeeded by Petronius Maximus as emperor. Rome is plundered by the Vandals, and Maximus is killed during mob violence. Avitusbecomes emperor of the west.
  • 476- Germanic general Odoacer kills Orestes, forces Romulus Augustus to abdicate and proclaims himself King of Italy. Traditional date for the fall of the western Roman Empire. The Eastern Roman Empire (later known as the Byzantine Empire) continues on.
  • 488-489 CE - the Ostrogoths invade and defeat Odoacer's forces

Obviously there was not just one ruler for that entire period.

The Mongols never got anywhere near the city of Rome. Nor did they invade the Byzantine Empire (this is the name for the Eastern Roman Empire after the fall of the Western Roman Empire). The Mongol invasions in Europe occurred during the Middle Ages, in the 13th century. The invasions in Europe were in Eastern Europe, particularly Ukraine and Russia. Poland, Hungary, Romania and Croatia were attacked and defeated, but not occupied.

Why were the byzantines angry when the pope crowned Charlemagne as holy roman emperor?

Charlemagne was crown as Roman Emperor, not as Holy Roman Emperor. The title of Holy Roman Emperor emerged centuries later. Charlemagne was given the title of Roman Emperor to symbolise the independence of the papacy from the Byzantine emperor and from Orthodox Christianity, the religion of the Byzantines. The title of this emperor was actually Roman Emperor. Byzantine and Byzantine Empire are terms which have been coined by historians. They use it to indicate the eastern part of the Roman Empire after the fall of the western part of this empire. The term Byzantine was not known at that time. The empire was called Roman Empire and the emperor was called Roman emperor. The coronation of Charlemagne was presented as the creation of another Roman Empire in the west, one which was independent from the one in the east. The Byzantines had retaken Italy after the Visigoths had taken it over. They lost some of their territories to an invasion by the Lombards in northern Italy, but they retained a territory in central Italy, the Exarchate of Ravenna. Rome had been under this exarchate an the emperor had been interfering with affairs in Rome and with papal affairs. The alliance between the pope and Charlemagne gave power to Catholic Christendom and independence to the papacy

Who crowned Charlemagne emperor?

Pope Leo III crowned Charlemagne Emperor in St. Peter's Basilica, in Rome, on December 25, 800 AD. At the time he crowned Charlemagne, he referred to the empire as the Roman Empire. Today, historians call Charlemagne's empire the Carolingian Empire, but at the time, people in Western Europe called it the Roman Empire, as Pope Leo III had. The people of the Byzantine Empire of the time, who had always called their country the Roman Empire, and would as long as it existed, were not very happy about this. The Carolingian Empire divided into France, and a country we call the Holy Roman Empire, but which called itself the Roman Empire for some time. If all this sounds confusing, imagine how it sounded to the people of the time. There are a links below.
