The Dark Ages have just ended and the Renaissance is about to begin. Italy, once the foundations of the great empire of Rome, has now collapsed into multiple city-states. There is large amounts of fighting amongst these city states. Your task is to unify Italy, by peace or by war, without being destroyed yourself. It will take all your diplomatic and strategic skills to stay alive, are you up to the challenge?

I forgot to mention, but you must choose an Italian city state, no other nations are allowed. |

So, how accurate was my Florence population? Is it more like 1,000,000 in reality? |

@dark: Reserved. I think it's spelled Monteriggioni, that's a result google gave me. It would be in the Republic of Siena. |

I think the only city-states remaining are Venice, Naples and Genoa. Are there any others I didn't say? |

Tuscany also includes Florence though. I'm Florence, so you are another city-state that is in Tuscany. Siena is one of them. |

Not sure if you're right. That map appears to show Florence being larger, and I'm guessing 1,000,000 for Florence. Also, Siena ended up being defeated by Florence, so I'm not sure it has a larger military. I'm thinking maybe 200,000 population, 5,000 soldiers. |

Genoa is reserved.
Florence would like to ally with Siena to stop the Papal States from gaining too much power. |
