The Council of Pisa met in 1409 to solve the Great Schism in the Catholic Church. However it succeeded in only complicating situation by deposing the two popes and electing a third. It was thus followed by the more successful Council of Constance which deposed two of the popes, forced the third to resign, and elected Martin V to office.
