Years: 1396 - 1539
Maximilian's reforms are not enough to cure the ills of the empire, and relations between it and the princes and ecclesiastical states often are tense.
Disputes frequently involve complicated constellations of powers with occasional interference from abroad, most notably France.
Charles V (r. 1519-56) is elected emperor in 1519 only after he pays large bribes to the seven electors and agrees to many restrictions on his powers, restrictions he often later ignores.
