In the ancient era, the Latin term that was often used was "S.P.Q.R." ("Senatus Populusque Romanus" Latin) in documents, on flags and banners and carved/engraved on buildings Terms such as Imperium Romanum Occidentalis and Hesperium Imperium were never in official usage or were invented by later medieval or modern historians long after the Western Roman court had fallen. ^ Since the Western Roman Empire was not a distinct state separate from the Eastern Roman Empire, there was no particular official term that designated the Western provinces or their government, which was simply known at the time as the "Roman Empire".
