I have to admit, that would be pretty cool! Perhaps the pope was at war with one of those factions and the others jumped in due to allies being under attack, ect. No idea what caused it, but I just think it would be interesting to see a very strong papal authority expand beyond Italy.

Especially since patch 1.2 has the pope become more active during the game. His favorite target is Tunis if under the rule of Sicily.
