Born Oddone Colonna in early 1369, he rose through a Church that had been tearing itself apart since 1378, when the Western Schism split the papacy into warring claimants. His election on 11 November 1417 closed that wound: one pope, one claim, the fracture sealed. He ruled the Catholic Church and the Papal States until his death on 20 February 1431. No pope since has taken the name Martin.
