Florence or Firenze is a major city in Italy, particularly noted for being one of the leading centers of the Renaissance.
History
During the latter half of the 15th century, it was dominated by the powerful Medici family, who were patrons to many noteworthy Renaissance figures. In 1495, Demona came to Florence to steal the Medici Tablet, although in so doing, she was pursued by the "Renaissance Hunter."
