Italian Wars
During the period 13th and 16th century Europe was in a state of great ebullition and new classification. Wars, revolutions, politico-economical transition, social convulsions and illnesses overwhelmed fatally the stability of Europe. During the period of two centuries (14th and 15th century) the countries that were constituting Europe were trying to solve the various problems by using political regimes and a lot of times using radical methods. Italy had a lead role during that period (Renaissance) but also before that and especially the city-states that constitute the country. Many innovations, new ideas and methods that were used in all areas like economy, trading, politics, society and religion came from Italy the period of Renaissance influencing all Europe.

In the South the latifundia, the large estates owned by a few landowners, continued in existence, but they were now farmed with hired labour. In the chaos of this curse Italy was trying to save everything that she had created and foremost the human lives. In 1375 a war began between the papacy and Florence.

The period of the Resonance influenced Europe and the rest of the world in many aspects like literature, art, architecture, politico-economical systems, society, philosophy and trade. The introduction of the compass in navigation gave a new impulsion in the manufacture of bigger and more resistible ships. The economical changes had consequences in the regimes of the city-states. In Venice the trade aristocracy was in charge. It influenced Literature, history, art, education and lifestyle. Italy despite of all the problems she had to affront during this period, like the conflicts between the big city-states, the plague and famine and the wars, she gave the world one of the most important periods. New methods of learning and composing of poems were established. Every one had to recruit in the Territorial Army and they were fighting side by side.
