No New Posts Venice

This city state is unlike most cities in the world. Located in northeast Italy, the city is a group of small islands separated by canals and linked by bridges. It is actually off the cost of the Kingdom of Italy, surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea. This makes ships the only ways of travel from and to the city. Currently the city thrives with wealth from trade with the Byzantine Empire, which is west of the city. The city is a popular place for all types of people: fishermen, merchants, sailors, pirates, nobles, and navy soldiers. However control of the city lies with its Council. The powerful navy that resides in Venice is under their control.

No New Posts Florence

Another strong city of trade and wealth, Florence is located south of the Venice and the Po River in more central Italy. Three rivers flow directly through the city, adding to the humidity in the city. The city is quite large and is separated in different quarters dependent on the type of people living in the city. Some of the sections are actually walled off from other parts of the city. One that is completely surrounded by a wall is the center district.

No New Posts Rome

Rome is the capital and central power in the Kingdom of Italy. Here the Church is most powerful. The city is in the center of Italy, southeast of Florence. The city is built on seven hills, each having their own walls to protect them from outside invaders. In the center of Rome is St. Peter’s Square where the Church’s power resides.

No New Posts Apennine Mountains

This large mountain range runs parallel across the Italian Peninsula. These mountains are actually in the more central regions of the land in the south, but move along eastward as they head north into the large mountain region that runs east to west. In the northwest they join with a large mountain region that runs east to west. There are many mountain passes, caves, and rivers that flow through and from the mountains. Traveling through them is often avoided because many mythological creatures make their home there.

No New Posts Turin

Turin is a city located northwest. It is the nearest city to the Kingdom of France. To the north are large mountains that indicate the end of the Kingdom of Italy. They are a mere three days journey from the nearest mountain. A stone wall surrounds the city, where ancient roman towers still stand and act as doors into the city. These structures are taller than the wall itself with barracks inside and posts for archers to shoot arrows from. The city was once a host for the main military camp of Rome, but since the end of the Roman Empire the estates are now run by the different nobles in the city. The Po River runs directly into the city from the east. The weather is naturally cooler in Turin then in the many other cities in the Kingdom of Italy.
