Avamposto Veneziano
Talk0this wiki

Added by Campbell430The Avamposto Veneziano (English: Venetian Outpost) was a port located within Romagna. The complex was comprised of a lighthouse, a dock, and a large square building. The outpost was used by ships to ferry passengers between Venice and Romagna, including Ezio Auditore da Firenze and Leonardo da Vinci.
Venetian naval strategy involved maintaining a stead chain of bases along their trade routes to the East, ensuring that its merchants were able to get there and back without being attacked by pirates or Venice's enemies, the Turks.
By the end of the 15th century, Venice's fleet was occupied trying to force Charles VIII of France out of Italy, at which point, Turkish forces struck without warning. Venice was soundly defeated, losing its Greek outposts. Following that, the Turks managed to invade Venetian territory in northern Italy. Although Venice was able to keep most of its territory from that point forward, it would never again be a great naval power.
