Year 5325 of the Jewish calendar.

1

In the year 5325, Pope Pius V was appointed and commanded that within three months all the Jews must leave his kingdom on pain of loss of body and property. And so it was done - not a single trace remained except for a few who converted. There were about 1,000 households that left, and most of their property remained because they could not take it. Israel was greatly, greatly humiliated, for there remained only their loan documents [(Sha'arei Kedusha 117b), and it is written there: and I alone was left in Imola and Romania with more than ten thousand gold coins of real value].
