The election of Pope Gregory XII

Fourteen cardinals present in Rome entered the conclave in Vatican^[3] on November 18, twelve days after the death of Innocent VII.

Initially, all the electors subscribed the conclave capitulation,^[3] in which each of them swore that, if elected, he would abdicate provided Antipope Benedict XIII did the same or should die; also, that he would not create new cardinals except to maintain parity of members with the Avignon cardinals; and that within three months he would enter into negotiations with his rival about a place of meeting.^[4]

Almost no further details about this conclave are known, except of its final result. On November 30 Cardinal Angelo Correr, proposed by Cardinal Caetani, was unanimously
