Italian Empire

A brilliant 21st-century mind awakens in the body of an 18-year-old, penniless noble in the war-torn landscape of 13th-century Italy. Surrounded by feuding city-states, ambitious princes, and the immense power of the Papacy, he is the lord of a single, run-down castle and a patch of forgotten land.



But while his title is worthless, his mind is a weapon.



Armed with centuries of future knowledge—of revolutionary technology, advanced military tactics, and the art of modern statecraft—he conceives an impossible ambition. He will not merely survive in this brutal era; he will forge it to his will. From the lowest rung of the feudal ladder, he will manipulate the great powers, build an empire from the ground up, and unite the fractured peninsula.



This is the saga of a man forging a new Roman destiny, a story of ruthless ambition, brutal warfare, and the audacious quest to claim a prize that has been lost for a thousand years: Italy's Crown.
