Papal soldiers of Gregory IX invade the lands of Friedrich II in what the pope calls a crusade against the "non-Christian" king.

A Sixth Crusade embarks for the Holy Land in midsummer under the leadership of the excommunicated Holy Roman Emperor Friedrich II, who capitalizes on dissensions among descendants of the late Malik-al-Adil to achieve his ends through diplomacy (see 1229).

Stephen Langton, archbishop of Canterbury, dies at Slindon, Sussex, July 9.

Francis of Assisi is canonized by Pope Gregory IX just 2 years after his death. Franciscan monks will play a major role in history for the next 4 centuries.
