That time there were three Popes
So, when they need a new pope, all the cardinals get together and vote, and boom, new pope. In 1378 they elected this guy (Urban XI) who at first seemed fine but then he started trying to reform things so the Cardinals were like, hell nah, and elected a new pope (Clement VII) six months latter. This was a huge problem because you had two dudes being like ‘I’m the pope’ at the same time, one in Rome and one in Avignon (in France).
All the catholic countries had to choose which pope to follow and this resulted in some crazy political upheaval. So in 1409 a council of cardinals met in Pisa (italy) to resolve the issue. They were like, ok, so neither of these fools is the pope, we’re electing a new one, resulting in three, count ‘em three, popes.
Finally in 1414 the roman and pisan popes agreed to step down and the pope in Avignon was excommunicated paving the way for the election of a new pope (martin v), who would be the only one, ending the madness. This time period is known as the western schism.
