Summary
The papal conclave to elect a new Pope opens at the Apostolic Palace in Rome with 13 cardinals, all of whom had been selected by Pope Urban during the years from 1378 to 1384.The three absentees (from France, England and Hungary) had also been elevated to the college of cardinals by Pope Urban.
1389 conclave
Election of Catholic Pope Boniface IX
The 1389 conclave was convoked after the death of Pope Urban VI. The conclave is historically unique because all of the cardinal electors were the creation of a single pontiff: Urban VI, the very pope who was being replaced. None of the surviving cardinals created by previous popes recognized Urban VI as legitimate.
