Concordat of Worms
Pope and emperor share the right to install bishops
Emperor Henry V and Pope Callixtus II ended the half-century Investiture Controversy: bishops were to be elected by the church, the emperor only handing them a sceptre for their secular lands. The compromise weakened the emperors and strengthened the papacy.
