# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born in Ephesus in 655, John VI became bishop of Rome on 30 October 701, one of the last Greek popes in an era when Constantinople still shaped the papacy. His three-year reign stood out for military and political gains in Italy — concrete territorial and defensive wins in a period when popes rarely commanded such outcomes. He died on 11 January 705 and was buried in Old St. Peter's Basilica. After a vacancy of under two months, Pope John VII took the chair.
