Pope (1185–1187)
Pope from 1185 to 1187, Urban III spent his two-year run locked in territorial disputes with Holy Roman Emperor Frederick Barbarossa over who got to appoint bishops in Italy and Germany. Short tenure, maximum drama.
Pope Urban III served as head of the Catholic Church and ruler of the Papal States from 25 November 1185 until his death in 1187. A native of Milan, Urban III was elected pope at a time of intense conflict between the papacy and the Holy Roman Empire, particularly with Emperor Frederick Barbarossa. His brief pontificate was dominated by disputes over ecclesiastical jurisdiction in northern Italy and Germany, resistance to imperial influence over episcopal appointments, and the continuing repercussions of the 1177 Treaty of Venice.
