The 12th-Century saw a period of long decline for Casamari Abbey in Italy. Due to severe financial crises, the Region underwent great instability. In the Religious realm, the Church was suffering from the contending Rules of Anti-Pope Anacletus II and Pope Innocent II. During this period, one of the major Religious Figures of the day, Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, promoted The Cistercian Reforms of Monasticism as the best way to ensure fidelity of life and obedience to The Church.
