In 1494, there were five sovereign regional powers in Italy: Milan, Venice, Florence, the Papal States and Naples. In 1536, only one remained: Venice. These decades of conflict precipitated great anxiety among Western thinkers, and Italians responded to the fragmentation of Latin Christendom, the end of self-governance for Italians, and the beginning of the early modern era in various ways.

Gallipoli: the mere name summons the story of this well-known campaign of the First World War.

C'est une histoire, écrite dans l'émotion, au jour le jour, par ceux qui l'ont vécue : elle nous raconte le Débarquement, ses préparatifs, et la bataille de Normandie à travers les lettres et les journaux intimes que les soldats alliés, les civils et leurs ennemis ont écrits au milieu des combats, sur les bateaux, sur les plages ou dans les haies du bocage.

It is possible that no man has ever dominated a time as much as Charles the Great dominated the Early Middle Ages. It is true that the era had its kings, warriors, scholars, and religious leaders, but in many ways, Charlemagne was all of these things. He conquered land for the Franks and sent in missionaries to convert the pagans to Christianity.
