===Conrad II===

{{Main|Conrad II, Holy Roman Emperor}}

Conrad the Elder was the sole son of Henry of Worms. After his father's premature death, he was placed under the guardianship of Bishop [[Burchard of Worms]]. He married [[Gisela of Swabia]] in 1016.{{sfn|Weinfurter|1999|pp=14–17}} Both her father [[Herman II, Duke of Swabia]] and her mother [[Gerberga of Burgundy]] descended from [[Charlemagne]]. She was twice widowed. Gisela's first husband [[Brun I, Count of Brunswick]] had been a candidate to the imperial throne along with her father and the winning Henry&nbsp;II. Her second husband [[Ernest I, Duke of Swabia|Ernest]] succeeded her childless brother [[Herman III, Duke of Swabia|Herman&nbsp;III]] as duke of Swabia.{{sfn|Wolfram|2006|pp=31–33}} 

Conrad the Elder was elected king of Germany against his cousin Conrad the Younger on 4&nbsp;September 1024. Four days later, he was crowned in the [[Mainz Cathedral]] by Archbishop [[Aribo (archbishop of Mainz)|Aribo]].{{sfn|Weinfurter|1999|pp=18–22}} On learning of Henry&nbsp;II the citizens of the Italian city [[Pavia]] demolished the local royal palace claiming that during the interregnum no king could own the palace. In his response to the rebels, Conrad emphasized that "Even if the king died, the kingdom remaind, just as the ship whose steersman falls remains". A group of Lombard aristocrats offered the throne first to [[Robert II of France]] or his eldest son, [[Hugh Magnus]], then to [[William V, Duke of Aquitaine]], but the Lombard bishops and most aristocrats supported Conrad's claim to rule.{{sfn|Wolfram|2006|pp=63–64}} 

After crushing a revolt by his stepson [[Ernest II, Duke of Swabia]] and Conrad the Younger in Germany, Conrad marched to Italy. He was crowned king of the Lombards in Milan by Archbishop [[Aribert (archbishop of Milan)|Aribert]] probably on 25th&nbsp;March 1026. Resistance against his rule was quickly crushed. He reached Rome where he was crowned Holy Roman Emperor by [[Pope John XIX]] on 26th&nbsp;March 1027.{{sfn|Weinfurter|1999|pp=26–27}}{{sfn|Wolfram|2006|pp=97–102}}
