• This caused the exponential growth of feudalism• Weakened Empire was left vulnerable to invasions.• German ruler, Otto I, married the Lombard king’s widow, ruled over
much of Italy and was crowned emperor by the pope. – This led to years of continued conflict with the papacy and local
Italian rulers and the Holy Roman Emperor. • The Holy Roman Empire was stabilized by three successive emperors
named Otto.
