   More Heart of Europe today. Most of what I read was about the investiture controversy. Simply put, the current pope and King Henry IV had disagreements over the duties of the emperor. Henry tried to depose the pope so the pope declared Henry's subjects to be free from his rule. They both set up an anti-pope and an anti-king to oppose the other. Eventually Henry crossed the Alps to meet with the pope in northern Italy so that he could be reinstated and prevent rebellion by his subjects.
