Background
List of all popes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_popes
Gambling on papal elections has at least a 500-year history. Betting on 16th-century papal conclaves are among the first documented examples of gambling on election outcomes.
During the same period, gambling was also common on the outcomes of secular Italian elections, such as that of the Doge of Venice.
