He was chosen in just a few hours, according to the Vatican historian, Ambrođa Pjaconija.

In the 13th century, it took almost three years, more precisely 1,006 days, to be the successor of the Pope Clement Fourth, which was the longest conclave in the history of the Catholic Church.

The secret ballot with which the Pope Gregory was elected, lasted from November 1268. Until September 1271. years.

It was the first example of the Papa Selection « compromise », after the long fight supporters of two main geopolitical medieval factions – those believed papacy and those who support the Holy Roman Empire.

Grgur Tenth was picked only after Viterba residents, where the selection was held at the time, took off the roof from the building where they were prelati and limited their meals on bread and water to press them to make a decision.

Hoping to avoid this again, the tenth is 1274. The Cardinals would receive « only one meal a day » if the conclave lasts longer than three days « if it lasts longer than eight, which is later lifted.

Two previous chiefs, Benedict sixteenth And Franja, were elected during the second day of voting, while the Cardinal Pope John Paul second chose the third day.

During 1958. the general confusion was created when the gathered in Svetog Petra Square first, see white smokes to become black after a few moments.
