Agreed Kim, lots of rulers had traits Machiavelli admired but none were as successful or brilliant as Cesare hence Machiavelli writing the book about our Prince
 Only problem was Cesare's downfall at the death of Rodrigo, if only Julius hadn't been elected or Cesare hadn't been ill at the time  Cesare almost had enough power not to depend on the papacy when Rodrigo died but fortune wasn't quite so kind and turned on him.__________________

I miss this character. It seems I have forgotton what actually happened to him, but I'm guessing as he vanished he died?

He had a long life. He died after Rodrigo, Cesare and even Lucrezia.
He wrote (among other things) The Prince a politics book inspired from Cesare. |

Machiavelli lived the longest, and obviously Cesare died first even if his life had the biggest impact on the lives of the other two. The Borgias series, of course, didn't say what happened to Machiavelli (weren't all the characters left in limbo? ) __________________

I'm guessing they were yes, but most of them had obvious outcomes but he just disappeared like Rodrigos mistress.

    Once I have taken Forli I will deal with Naples. My sister Lucrezia will act as his regent and will rule it in his name. Source: __________________
