Pope Saint Pius V, born Antonio Ghislieri on January 17, 1504, in Bosco Marengo, was a Dominican friar who became the 225th pope, reigning from 1566 to 1572, and a key figure in the Counter-Reformation. Joining the Dominicans at 14, he rose as an inquisitor and bishop, elected pope in 1566 amid calls for reform. He implemented the Council of Trent, standardized the Tridentine Mass, and excommunicated Queen Elizabeth I, while his rosary devotion—credited for the 1571 Lepanto victory—shaped Catholic practice. Austere and unyielding, he died on May 1, 1572, at 68 in Rome, his reforms enduring despite frail health.
