OF GERMANY ruled from 1198 to 1218. but he played no part worthy of special mention here. He was crowned by Innocent III in 1209, but on account of the occupation of the papal territory was visited with the ban by this same pope, and thus crippled in his power he found it impossible to contend with the rival ruler, Frederick II, and retired to Brunswick, where he died, Nov. 19, 1218.
