Ferdinand’s agreement in 1416 to depose the antipope Benedict XIII, thereby helping to end the Western Schism, which has divided the Western Church for nearly forty years, is the most notable accomplishment of the Aragonese king's brief reign.

Compulsory conversions of the Jews have continued, although not given official encouragement.

Vincent Ferrer passes through the communities and compels the Jews to hear his sermons, then takes his campaign north to France in 1416; this year a new king, Alfonso V, takes the throne in Aragon, and subsequently reverses all the anti-Jewish legislation of the Ferrer epoch, protecting the Jews and conversos firmly from the start of his reign and rejecting all attacks on them.
