Emperor Henry III, presiding over his empire…

1048 CE

Emperor Henry III, presiding over his empire from his castle at Goslar in Germany, has overawed the restive Saxon nobles and, through war and diplomacy, has induced the rulers of Poland, Bohemia, and Hungary to do homage.

He enlists reformers from Cluny, Peter Damian, and other churchmen to serve him as councilors and friends.

In an attempt to restrict private warfare, Henry has promulgated the Peace of God.

He has also endowed monasteries, and has participated in reformist councils, as well as retaining traditional controls over ecclesiastics and their institutions.
