The emperor received the right of supervising the government and the administration of justice at Rome through the instrumentality of permanent envoys, and no new pope was to be consecrated until he had, together with the Romans, taken the oath of allegiance to the emperor in the presence of imperial envoys.
The conclusion of peace was confirmed by the Conference of Bologna, at which Charles V on 24 April, 1530, received the imperial crown from Clement VII.
The papal dignity sank to a still lower level under the nephew of John XIX, Benedict IX, whose elevation to the papal throne at the age of twenty was secured by his family through simony and violence.

 H-Net Review: Daniel Unowsky on Francis Joseph
Beller does not praise Franz Joseph for his flexibility and willingness to curb his own power, though this seeming flexibility is rather astounding for a dedicated absolutist and scion of a family claiming descent not only from Carolingian and Roman emperors, but from the House of David itself.
Beller powerfully argues that the decisions Franz Joseph made stifled the development of a working political system, increased national tensions, and laid t he groundwork for the national-exclusivist, authoritarian, bureaucratic, and eventually pro-fascistic politics that followed the dissolution of the Habsburg State.
Beller's Franz Joseph, a born absolutist dedicated to the preservation of his great dynasty, never ceased to consider the state a vehicle for the glory of the dynasty, to view the monarchy as a

 Wickham Steed on Emperor Franz Joseph
The Emperor Francis Joseph, it has been claimed, is alone in a position to remedy this error and to remove the obstacles to the recogni tion of the children of the Archduke Francis Ferdinand and of the Duchess of Hohenberg as Archdukes of Austria.
Francis Joseph will bequeath to his successor a rich store of dynastic prestige and a perennial example of the truth that, high above the internal struggles and vicissitudes of the Monarchy, stands, or may stand, the all but indestructible influence of the wearer of the Crown.
The House of Hapsburg consists of the Emperor as Head, his wife, the surviving widows of his predecessors, the Archdukes and Archduchesses descended in male lineage from eligible (ebenburtig) marriages contracted with the consent of the Head of the Family at the time being.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Joseph II
Joseph viewed with jealous discontent the intellectual superiority of the Protestant North of Germany, then first dominant over the Catholic South: he also reflected with chafing impatience on Frederick's victories and talent for government, and thence conceived a definite aim in life.
Joseph's entire policy was the embodiment of his idea of a centralized empire developing from within and in which all public affairs, political and ecelesiastico-political, were treated as an indivisible whole.
Joseph was the father of Josephinism, which is nothing else than the highest development of the craving common among secular princes after an episcopal and territorial church.
