Description
The Grand Duchy of Tuscany was founded on August 27, 1569 when Pope Pius V issued a bull declaring his long-term supporter Cosimo de Medici to be the first Grand Duke of Tuscany, a title unprecedented in Italy. Thus, the House of Medici had been raised to the rank of sovereigns, and Cosimo and his successors were to be addressed as Serene Highness. The Grand Duchy succeeded the Florentine Republic, which had been established in the early 12th century as a respectable maritime power alongside the likes of Venice and Genoa. Of course, things need not have turned out that way...Actions
