1210
1213
1216
1215
Answer
Otto IV was abandoned by most of his supporters in 1215. This was a result of his defeat at the Battle of Bouvines, which led to the loss of his French territories. Otto also faced opposition from Pope Innocent III, who had excommunicated him in 1213. As a result of these setbacks, Otto's support began to dwindle, and he was eventually forced to abdicate in 1218.
