His election followed the death of Pope Martin IV and was notable for its speed; he was chosen unanimously on the first ballot. Honorius IV's papacy occurred during a tumultuous period marked by political strife and conflict in Sicily, where he sought to navigate complex relationships with various rulers while maintaining papal authority. During his pontificate he continued to pursue the pro-French political policy of his predecessor. He is the most recent pope to take the pontifical name \"Honorius\" upon election, after his granduncle Pope Honorius III.","summary_more":[],"facts":[{"key":"born","label":"Born","values":[{"text":"1210","date":"1210"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q227743#P569"}},{"key":"birthplace","label":"Place of birth","values":[{"text":"Rome","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q220"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q227743#P19"}},{"key":"died","label":"Died","values":[{"text":"3 April 1287","date":"1287-04-03"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q227743#P570"}},{"key":"deathplace","label":"Place of death","values":[{"text":"Rome","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q220"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q227743#P20"}},{"key":"citizenship","label":"Citizenship","values":[{"text":"Papal States","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q170174"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q227743#P27"}},{"key":"occupation","label":"Occupation","values":[{"text":"Catholic priest","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q250867","start":"1285-05-19"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q227743#P106"}},{"key":"education","label":"Education","values":[{"text":"University of Paris","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q209842"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q227743#P69"}},{"key":"positions","label":"Positions held","values":[{"text":"Pope (9 April 1285 – 3 April 1287)","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q19546","start":"1285-04-09","end":"1287-04-03"}],"source":{"label":"Wikidata","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q227743#P39"}}],"office":null,"sections":[],"cited":[],"cited_from":null,"videos":[],"last_reviewed":null,"organizations":[],"same_as":["https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Honorius_IV","https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q227743"],"faq":[{"q":"When was Pope Honorius IV born?","a":"Pope Honorius IV was born on 1210 in Rome."},{"q":"What positions has Pope Honorius IV held?","a":"Positions held by Pope Honorius IV include: Pope (1285–1287)."},{"q":"Where did Pope Honorius IV study?","a":"Pope Honorius IV was educated at University of Paris."}],"related":[{"name":"Pope Telesphorus","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/pope-telesphorus"},{"name":"Pope Gregory XIII","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/pope-gregory-xiii"},{"name":"Pope Clement VII","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/pope-clement-vii"},{"name":"Pope Pius I","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/pope-pius-i"},{"name":"Pope Boniface I","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/pope-boniface-i"},{"name":"Pope Agapetus I","url":"https://diginpl.com/people/pope-agapetus-i"}],"places_in":[],"nearby":[],"image":{"url":"https://diginpl.com/kb-img/pope-honorius-iv-19c9bb50d8.jpg","width":500,"height":658,"license":"CC BY-SA 4.0","credit":"PHGCOM","page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:PopeOnorioIV.jpg"},"sources":[{"label":"Wikipedia (English): Pope Honorius IV","url":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Honorius_IV","license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/"},{"label":"Wikidata item Q227743","url":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q227743","license":"https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/"},{"label":"Image: PopeOnorioIV.jpg by PHGCOM (CC BY-SA 4.0)","url":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:PopeOnorioIV.jpg","license":null}],"license":{"text":"CC BY-SA 4.0","url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/","facts":"https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/"},"attribution":"Text from the Wikipedia article Pope Honorius IV, licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0.
