Pope John Paul II (1920 – 2005) or St. John the Great as he is known by many since his canonisation, was pope for 27 years, from 1978 until his death in 2005. Karol Józef Wojtyła was the first non-Italian pope since the 16th century. As pope, he spoke out against apartheid, the mafia, the Gulf war and the Iraq war. Wherever he saw injustice, he stood against it.  Pope John Paul II also helped to bring down communism in Eastern Europe and worked tirelessly to build bridges with Islam, Judaism and the Eastern Orthodox Church.
