In 828 CE, during the second iconoclast period, the doges of Venice ordered the construction of the "Patriarchal Cathedral Basilica of Saint Mark". Emperor Irene had died in 803 CE. Two new words were beginning a new era, that of "patriarchy" and that of the "cathedrals". Cathedrals became the place of relics and of the tombs of the apostles, the kings, the templars, the cardinals, the representations of a Christian power that would establish the limits of a "civilized" Empire. The patriarchy brought back the power from Constantinople to Rome and Charlemagne became the founding father of a Neo Roman Empire that was governed by kings under the influence of a Roman Catholic Pope. Catholic means that Christianity is made universal with a spiritual leader in the basilica of San Peter in Vatican.

The story says that Charlemagne would have asked the Emperor Irene to marry him in order the reunite the two Empires of Rome and of Constantinople. Together, Charlemagne believed that they would have been stronger to defeat the raise of Islam. Emperor Irene would have declined and Constantinople has fallen to the Arabs few years after her death. At the same period, the State Welfare of the Byzantine Era has collapsed. Charlemagne has created reforms that have defined the foundations of a modern Europe, but a modern Europe that has reached a breaking point where the welfare has fallen under  the attack of its elites. Those who have become kings, aristocrats, bourgeois, rich merchants, bankers, law makers, lawyers, judges, priests are making a choir to commit the last sacrifice. The last sacrifice after the myth of the "last sacrifice of Jesus". They are judging the society and they are condemning the poor for the mistakes that the rich have been forgiven. They are bleeding the lamb that will redeem their guilt, and they dance. They dance.
