Years: 1004 - 1004

Henry II, responding to calls for aid from Italian bishops, leads an invasion into Italy against Arduin in 1004, gathering his troops at Augsburg and marching through the Brenner Pass to Trento in Italy.

After initial military successes, much of the Italian clergy and some noble families swear allegiance to Henry II, including Arbishop Arnulf II of Milan.
