Answer

The Norman Kingdom of Sicily faced an invasion led by Lothair III, Holy Roman Emperor, in an attempt to assert imperial authority over Southern Italy. Lothair's campaign proved successful, as he managed to capture several key cities and force the Norman king, Roger II, to acknowledge his overlordship. This victory solidified Lothair's control over the region and temporarily curbed the expansionist ambitions of the Norman kingdom.
