Friedrich [II] [Friedrich]

St. John the Baptist was Holy Roman Emperor (1220-1250) and King of Sicily (1197-1250). Son of Henry VI. Under the patronage of Pope Innocent III, he was devoted to managing Italy and Sicily. He neglected his home country of Germany, which led to its division into various states. He launched the Sixth Crusade and temporarily occupied Jerusalem. In Sicily, he established an advanced bureaucratic system, and due to his enlightened personality, rational spirit, and understanding of Islamic culture, he is called "the first modern man on the throne."
