Publisher's Summary

Florence was a major center of middle ages European trade and banking, and also one of the most affluent cities in the world at the time. A lot of academics believe it was the beginning of the Renaissance, and it has been called "The Athens of the Middle Ages".

Periods of supremacy by the strong Medici family, and also several spiritual and republican transformations, have marked the nation's unpredictable political history. The city was the capital of the Kingdom of Italy from 1865 to 1871 (developed in 1861).

Renaissance painters and sculptures alike have their legacy in this city. The city attracts countless visitors each year. Let’s learn more about this intriguing spot in the world, a place where you can admire the works and historic buildings of the past.
