The Treaty of Worms of 29 July 1523 was an agreement between Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor; Henry VIII, King of England; Ferdinand I, Archduke of Austria; Francesco II Sforza, Duke of Milan; and the Republic of Venice. Pope Adrian VI pushed for the treaty, although he was not a signatory. The main result of the treaty was Imperial recognition of Venice's Terraferma in return for Venetian support against France in the ongoing Italian War.
