The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- As pope, he expanded the papal territory by force of arms and advantageous politicking, and was also a prominent patron of the arts, commissioning works from artists like Gian Lorenzo Bernini, and a reformer of Church missions.
- His papacy also covered 21 years of the Thirty Years' War.
- The massive debts incurred during his pontificate greatly weakened his successors, who were unable to maintain the papacy's longstanding political and military influence in Europe.
