François | Cesare #19: "Father, please, just open your heart to me." ~ Cesare to Rodirgo

He was made Bishop of Pamplona at the age of 15. Following school in Perugia and Pisa where Cesare studied law, along with his father's elevation to Pope, Cesare was made Cardinal three years later. After his brother Juan's death, Cesare became the first person in history to resign the cardinalate. On the same day the French King Louis XII named Cesare Duke of Valentinois, and this title, along with his former position as Cardinal of Valencia, explains the nickname "Valentino". Cesare's military career was founded upon his father's ability to distribute patronage, along with his alliance with France (reinforced by his marriage with Charlotte d'Albret, sister of John III of Navarre), in the course of the Italian Wars. At the time of his father's death in 1503, Cesare's dominons in the Romagna disintegrated without continued Papal support. In order to smooth the way to his election as pope, Giuliano Della Rovere - later Pope Julius II - made an agreement with Cesare, promising to make him captain of the papal troops again. After the conclave, Cesare surrendered the Castel Sant' Angelo and came to live with Della Rovere in the Vatican. The pope toyed with the idea of using Cesare to stem the Venetians in the Romagna, for he could still attract loyalty not only from the Spanish but also, to some degree, from the people of the province. However, the Venetians claimed that all they were doing was taking the lands of their common enemy, Cesare Boriga. Hence, Julius II asked Cesare for the countersigns of the fortresses that he held (Cesena, Bertinoro and Forlì). In return Cesare received a brief saying that he could go where he liked once the cities had been surrendered. He went to Naples and begun to try to recruit troops but when the Spanish monarchs heard of this they ordered their viceroy Gonsalvo to arrest Cesare. Exiled to Spain in 1504, he was imprisoned in the Castle of La Mota, Medina del Campo, from which he escaped and joined his brother-in-law King John III of Navarre. Subsequently, Cesare was killed in 1507 while fighting for the Navarrese king in the city of Viana, Spain. In "The Prince", Machiavelli uses Cesare Borgia as an example to elucidate the dangers of acquiring a principality by virtue of another. Cesare also inspired many novels and was portrayed in many movies and television series based on the Borgia's rise and fall. For instance most recently: The Borgias (TV, 2011) played by François Arnaud Borgia (TV, 2011) played by Mark Ryder Los Borgia (Movie, 2006) played by Sergio Peris-Mencheta The Borgias (TV, 1981) played by Oliver Cotton *** François Arnaud François Arnaud (born 5 July 1985 in Québéc, Canada) is a French Canadian stage and film actor who trained at the Conservatoire d'Art Dramatique de Montréal in 2007. He is best known for his performances as "Cesare Borgia" in Showtime's TV series The Borgias and as "Antonin" in the critically acclaimed French Canadian movie J'ai tué ma mère. In 2009, he had a part in Sophie Lorain's Les Grandes Chaleurs. In Québéc, François is known for his role as "Théo" in the TV series Yamaska. __________________

You're welcome, Lucrezia! And you've just been added!
It was difficult for me to make this new thread because when I went to copy the OP from the previous thread, I saw Christine's old post. She was the first one to post on the previous thread, and she thanked me and let me know that she was about to make the new one until she saw me do it. Christine was such a huge fan of Francois and kept us all up to date on his new projects. I'd like to make a memorial for her on the OP if we can. __________________

You're very welcome, Lucrezia. And I wish you had met Christine too. She was a very warm, kind, wonderful person.
My avatar is in her honor. She loved the pic of Francois with the monkey in that scene from season 1. __________________

You're welcome, Barbara! And thanks. I really think it would be great because Christine cared so much about this thread.
I got both of your PM's, Suzanne! Thanks so much! Arinna and I are gonna look at them both and I'm gonna let her decide which one to use and how they'll go in the OP. She's a woman so I have to let her decide because I'll just make the wrong decision no matter what. __________________
