He was made co-ruler by his father, Henry IV, in 1098.

He forced Henry IV to abdicate on 31 December 1105 and ruled for five years in compliance with the imperial princes. He tried, unsuccessfully, to withdraw the regalia from the bishops.

Once crowned emperor, Henry departed from joint rule with the princes and resorted to earlier Salian autocratic rule. After he had failed to increase control over the church, the princes in Saxony and o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
