The rule of Henry II has been characterized as a period of centralized authority throughout the Holy Roman Empire. He consolidated his power by cultivating personal and political ties with the Catholic Church. He greatly expanded the Ottonian dynasty's custom of employing clerics as counter-weights against secular nobles. Through donations to the Church and the establishment of new dioceses, Henry strengthened imperial rule across the Empire and increased control over ecclesiastical affairs. He stressed service to the Church and promoted monastic reform. For his remarkable personal piety and enthusiastic promotion of the Church, he was canonized by Pope Eugene III in 1146. He is the only medieval German monarch ever to have been honoured as a saint. Henry II's wife was the equally pious Empress Cunigunde, who was canonized in 1200 by Pope Innocent III.[5] As the union produced no children, the German nobles elected Conrad II, a great-great-grandson of Emperor Otto I, to succeed him after his death in 1024. Conrad was the first of the Salian dynasty of emperors.
Henry II's involvement in Italian politics and his coronation as emperor inevitably brought him into conflict with the Byzantine Empire. In 969, Emperor Otto I entered into an alliance with Byzantine Emperor John I Tzimiskes in which both Eastern and Western Empires would jointly-govern southern Italy. Otto I's death in 973 and John I's death in 976 caused this alliance to deteriorate. Otto I's successor in the West, his son Emperor Otto II, and John I's successor in the East, his nephew Basil II, brought the two empires once again into conflict over control of southern Italy.
In May 1017, Empress Cunigunde became seriously ill, while staying at the imperial estates in Kaufungen. Henry II vowed to found a monastery on the site if she recovered. Upon her recovery in 1018, Henry ordered the construction of the Kaufungen Abbey. After Henry II's death in 1024, Cunigunde retreated to the Abbey, where she remained until her own death in 1040.
Returning to Magdeburg, Germany from southern Italy to celebrate Easter, Henry II fell ill in Bamberg. After celebrating Easter, Henry retired to his imperial palace in Göttingen. He died there on 13 July 1024 at the age of 51, after suffering from a chronic, painful urinary infection. Henry had been working with the Pope to convene a Church council to confirm his new system of imperial-ecclesiastical relations before he died, leaving this effort unfinished.
In early September 1024, the German nobles gathered in Kamba and began negotiations for selecting a new king. The nobles elected the Franconian noble Conrad II as Henry II's successor, who became the first member of the Salian dynasty.
Henry II was a member of the Ottonian dynasty of kings and emperors who ruled the Holy Roman Empire (previously Germany) from 919 to 1024. In relation to the other members of his dynasty, Henry II was the great-grandson of Henry I, great-nephew of Otto I, first-cousin once removed of Otto II, and a second-cousin to Otto III.
I can adjust my screen resolution to its correct value in all the sins games (1280*1024) but the game does not adjust its stuck on the 1024*768 which for some reason when the update happened it set my game to? any suggestions
EDIT: Been a while since I messed with that. My desktop is set to 1920x1080 and I play window mode. I can set in game to smaller with no effect, it stays same settings as desktop. If I go full screen mode, I can change with effect. Actually going from dev mod to reg mode rewrites the settings file so it starts at 1024x768 full screen every time in normal mode . Dev stays window mod so I dont have to change that as its the same as my desktop even thought the setting file reads as above.
Conflict between Konrad and Saint Stephen emerged over the inheritance of Henry II. Stephen had married the sister of emperor Henry II which made his son, Emmerich, a theoretical contender for the throne. If he had ambitions to that role it did not make it into the chronicles since he does not feature as a candidate in the election in Kamba in 1024.
Not to mention, if the fight ended up dragging on, he could always try and return to the Sky Empire through some of the other empires connected to the Blue Sea Empire who also happened to share a border with the Sky Empire.
12288 / 1024 thats the fastest (and sort of affordable) dsl rate in austria. I know that austria is relatively expensive when it comes to broadband fees, for that 12288 down/ 1024 up connection you pay 89 Euro per month (about 95 dollars), i wonder what the fees are in other places around the world.
Medieval Empire follows in chronological order his earlier volumes on central European cultural history, the previous one covering approximately the period AD 500 to 900 finishing with the Carolingians. This current volume focuses on the geographical area that contained the medieval empire (and so precludes detailed histories of east-central Europe, Poland, and Bohemia, except when their histories touch on that of the empire) and the time period 900 to 1300. Schutz divides his work into the three well delineated ruling dynasties of "The Ottomans (919-1024)," "The Salians (1024-1125)," and "The Hohenstaufen (1138-1266)" and presents the history of the rulers chronologically. He assumes "a moderately informed audience" (xiii). This volume is a welcome readable history in English about the western Roman empire in medieval times post the Carolingian era. Scholarship written in English addressing the period and location remains of a very high quality but only studied by a small number of historians. The empire is scarcely known by the English reading audience whom I believe Schutz intends to address.
The book fulfils its stated aims well. At times the writing style is slightly awkward but mostly the ideas are clear. It is unfortunate that some anachronistic use of "man" continues: for example, "During the Romanesque period man continues to be a maker of images" (xiii) [my italics]. The pull-out maps are a useful addition to the various time frames covered. Mostly Schutz attempts to address the known facts although at times he examines some well-known theories of rulership. For example, he rejects a conscientious and deliberate push to the east, the subject over several years of considerable debate in German scholarship (5). The book is of use to the general reader albeit with a detailed interest in the subject. Schutz has included a valuable bibliography of many of the important secondary sources mostly in German but some in English and French, although the listing of the few primary sources by their editors can prove confusing. For example, Widukind of Corvey's Res gestae Saxonicae is listed under the main editor, Bauer, somewhat obscurely if the reader were unsure. Any of the (several editions) of Hrotsvita, Thietmar of Merseberg, and Odilo of Cluny are omitted altogether although referenced in the text (for example, Hrotsvit on p. 66 and on p. 314, n. 188). There are now good English translations of all of these as well as a Latin and German edition for Thietmar. Mierow's The Deeds of Frederick Barbarossa (the translation of Otto of Freising's and Rahwin's, Gesta Friderici I. imperatori) would have complemented nicely Opll's Friedrich Barbarossa. While the German references are reasonably comprehensive for scholarly broad reviews, in a book purporting to cover medieval empire for an English reading audience, the inclusion of other important secondary works in English would have added value, for example, Bernhardt's Concepts and Practice of Empire Ottonian Germany (950-1024) and Weiler and MacLean's Representations of Power in Medieval Germany, 800-1500, and Karl Leyser, Communications and Power in Medieval Europe: The Carolingian and Ottonian Centuries. Althoff's Otto III, appears neither in the English nor the German versions. Fleckenstein's Early Medieval Germany, still contains relevant insights. While the limited references to primary sources may make the book more accessible to the general reader, the lack of inclusion of some major primary sources as well as a glossing over of disagreements by the secondary authors means some of the facts are presented too simply. A case is the example of the wedding of Adelheid and Otto I. Schutz states categorically that "Otto I married the eighteen-year-old queen at Christmas 951" (50). Yet the extant sources remain unclear as to when Otto and Adelheid married although they agree that they were certainly married by late 951. Indeed Adelheid's exact year of birth is not even assured. My query regarding the date is no idle quibble. By Christmas Widukind (III.9) (and others) reported that Liudulf, Otto's son by his former now deceased wife, perceiving the expected loss of the inheritance of the kingdom because his father had already married Adelheid, arrived at Saalfield for Christmas where he sulked and plotted. There is a strong though not conclusive argument that Otto and Adelheid were indeed married as early as by 9 October when Otto issued his diplomata (DD O I 138, 139) naming himself rex Francorum et Eangobardorum and rex Francorum et Italicorum respectively, because Adelheid as queen of Italy had brought him the kingdom. Although it is difficult to present all the information in a relatively short book, nevertheless simplifications such as the above may then cast doubt over the validity of other information. All this means that Schutz's highly detailed and readable history needs to be treated with some scepticism before taking the information presented as undeniable facts. The book is highly recommended with that caution.
