Say I have compact Riemann surfaces $X$, $Y$. Is there necessarily a Riemann surface $Z$ which maps holomorphically onto both $X$, $Y$?

          Here is some construction. $X$ and $Y$ are smooth projective algebraic complex curves. So the complex surface $X times Y$ is projective (e.g. by Segre embedding) and so admits a very ample line bundle $L$. By Bertini theorem, the vanishing locus of a general section of $L$ is a smooth projective complex curve $Z$ (so a compact Riemann surface) in $X times Y$. The composition of the inclusion of $Z$ in $X times Y$ with the projection on $X$ (or $Y$) is not constant: if it were constant, $Z$ would be contained in some $Y$ fiber, having zero intersection with a generic $Y$ fiber, and contradicting ampleness of $L$.

            Choose non-constant meromorphic functions $f:Xto mathbb P^1$ and $g:Yto mathbb P^1$ and denote by $Z$ the normalization of the fiber product $Xtimes_mathbb P^1 Y=(x,y)in Xtimes Y; f(x)=g(y)$. It comes equipped with two maps $tilde f:Zto X$ and $tilde g:Zto Y$ such that the following diagramm commutes



            $requireAMScd$
            beginCD
            Z @>tilde f >> X\
            @V tilde g V V @VV f V\
            Y @>> g> mathbb P^1
            endCD



            Note that $Z$ may be disconnected, but the restriction of $tilde f$ and $tilde g$ to any of its connected components are surjective (because the fibers of those two maps are finite).
