 Sister Anna Bap's Famous Radical Pie: Frederick Barbarossa, Holy Roman Emperor (1122-1190)
Frederick brought Arnold of Brescia, the Roman revolutionary leader to Pope Adrian IV, and in return the king was crowned Holy Roman Emperor.

Frederick Barbarossa happily obliged, and in 1153 the two forces signed the Treaty of Constance, each promising mutual defense to the other, and the Pope gave his word to crown Barbarossa the Holy Roman Emperor.
