Summary:Henry IV succeeded his father as a young child, and after a childhood troubled by conflicting ambitions of lay and ecclesiastical magnates, he led a life worthy of a Shakespearean tragedy. Continually battling with the Pope, excommunicated, deserted by his wife, and betrayed by his closest supporters-including his son Henry V, who deposed him in 1106-Henry IV struggled to keep his empire together. However, the usurper Henry V proved to be the last in the Salian line because he died without an heir in 1125.
