1378 CE

Louis's attention again turns to Italy when the Western Schism breaks out in 1378.

Louis helps his protégé Charles of Durazzo conquer Naples and supplant its queen, Joan, who declares herself in favor of the antipope Clement VII.

His objective the domination of all of Dalmatia, Louis allies with Genoa against that city-state's longtime commercial rival, Venice, and mounts a military campaign to force the Venetians from the Dalmatian coast.
