Fill in the Holy Roman Emperors

The Holy Roman Empire formed in the Early Middle Ages and by the twelfth century, became the most powerful monarchy in Europe. Of the 45 individuals who can be considered Holy Roman Emperors, can you fill the imperial banner below by naming them all?

Traditionally, the Holy Roman Empire dated itself from the year 800, while contemporary scholarship considers 962 the official beginning of the Holy Roman Empire.

While the titles of 'King of the Franks' and 'King of the Romans' were given to Holy Roman Emperors, the official title of 'Holy Roman Emperor' (Imperator Romanorum) was granted by the Pope. The years in brackets below indicate when individuals were named either of the two former titles when this predates the imperial coronation.
