August 1313 in Buonconvento near Siena) came from the House of Limburg-Luxembourg and was Count of Luxembourg and Laroche as well as Margrave of Arlon. He was Roman-German king from 1308 to 1313 and from the 29th. June 1312 Roman-German Emperor. Henry was the first of three Holy Roman Emperors from the House of Luxembourg. In the reign of Henry VII. The House of Luxembourg came into possession of the Kingdom of Bohemia, which laid the foundation for the later significant domestic power of the Luxembourgers in the empire. In the German part of the empire, Heinrich pursued a consensus-oriented and successful policy. In the fall of 1310 he undertook an expedition to Italy to secure the imperial crown. Henry VII was the first Roman-German king after Frederick II of Hohenstaufen, who was also crowned emperor. His energetic work to renew imperial rule, which he began as king, soon led to conflict with Guelph forces in Italy and with the King of Naples (-Sicily) Robert of Anjou. In this dispute, Pope Clement V, who had initially cooperated with Henry, finally sided with the Guelphs. Heinrich's policy, which was aimed at balancing the warring groups in Imperial Italy, failed primarily due to the resistance of those involved who had hoped for a policy in their favor. Until his election as king, Henry had maintained good relations with the royal court in Paris, but these deteriorated due to his policies in the western border area, where he demanded lost imperial rights. This brought Henry into conflict with the powerful French King Philip IV. The empire had steadily lost influence during the interregnum and in the decades that followed. Henry's policy was aimed at restoring imperial rights, especially in Imperial Italy and in the western border area of the empire. He emphasized the special role of the empire in the sense of the traditional medieval idea of empire. The Renovatio Imperii carried out by Heinrich ensured that the Empire was once again perceived as a European power factor. After Henry's death, however, the universal imperial idea became increasingly less important. While the emperor was often viewed as a dreamer or fantasist in older research, more recent research shows his connection to common imperial-universal ideas as well as his actions, which were definitely guided by real-political motives.Source: Wikipedia Henry VII (* 1278/79 in Valenciennes; † 24.
