Italy

Italy was a country located in southern Europe during the second and third millennium, and home to the Italian sect of the Order of Assassins during 13th to 16th Centuries. Italy also served as the birth place of the Renaissance, and had many beautiful cities dotted across the landscape; Venice, Florence, Monteriggioni and Rome to name a few.

Despite the ideals of the Renaissance spreading out across all Italy, during this period the nation remained divided into a multitude of city-states and Republics, notables of which included La Serenissima Repubblica di Venezi, and the Papal States. Taking advantage of this division, the Knights Templar attempted to seize control of much of northern Italy during the late fifteenth century, but were ultimately thwarted in this attempt by Ezio Auditore da Firenze and his fellow Assassins.
