Julius II, formerly known as Giuliano della Rovere (5 December 1443 – 21 February 1513), was the Pope from 1503 to 1513, and was the successor of Pius III (whose predecessor was Alexander VI).
After becoming the Pope in 1503, he ordered a warrant for the arrest of Cesare Borgia, for the crimes of murder, betrayal, and incest.[1][2] He also learned of the Assassin Order and allied himself with the Order's head, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, promising to revive Rome to its former glory after the Borgia fled the city.[2]
