Pope Gregory the Great was born in 590 A.D., and died in 604 A.D.. He was a very great pope, and he used religion to get political power. He had something about him that made others want to follow him, and he even joined with barbaric tribes, being the 1st to do so and not be destroyed. Gregory ruled over many areas in Europe where there was no leader. Pope Gregory, along with the catholic church after the germanic tribes had invaded, were sometimes the only way to have unity among people, because areas sometimes did not have leaders.
I think that Pope Gregory the Great might have naturally been a leader, and I think that he affected the world when he lived, because of his leadership and how he led other groups of people that had no leader.
Great writing, but was he only 14 years old?
Good question. Oh bother. I looked it up and he was actually born in 540 A.D.. 590 A.D. was when he became pope. My mistake.
