Corruption has a long history, and people have used various methods to solve their problems, such as bribery, vote-buying, and intimidation into disclosure, over the centuries. Giulio de' Medici and Pompeo Colonna were competing equally for the Pope's table, and when elections were held several times and it was impossible to choose anyone, when the question of choosing a third person was a fierce competition, Giulio de' Medici did not give up but continued to use every means, five He made a unique trick, realizing that he would surely win if he took people's votes. He devised a bet with five of his own followers and five voting officials of the opposing side, and if the Medici won, the loser would be given 100,000 ducats, and the winner would be given 100,000 ducats. Thus, when the last chance re-election was held, these five people voted for the Medici first, and it is said that the victorious Medici gave the money to those people through his people. In this way, without doing any illegal act of vote buying, he just won by gambling. When Giulio Medici won, he called himself Archbishop Clement VII and took the throne from 1523 to 1534. According to the newspaper, he was the only bishop among all the bishops of Rome to wear a beard, breaking the rule that bishops should not have beards. It was interpreted as a sign of mourning for the fall of Rome.
