He chased after the guys, only to get separated from the rest of his men, he was then murdered and stripped naked of everything, including the mask he was wearing to hide the fact he had syphilis, and with nothing but a red tile to cover his balls.

    Well, to be fair, everyone used mercenaries at the time. Wars between city states, basically boiled down to who had the most money to hire the most mercs to intimidate the enemy and frequently never actually involved any real fighting. The Mercenaries were completely fine with this, after all, fighting was dangerous and it's not exactly much good getting paid, if you're too dead to spend it.

City-B, then offers the Wardogs 10'000 Ducats to go burn some of City-A's farms. So, City-A offers 15'000 Ducats to raid City-B's caravans. Both sides just keep at this, offering more and more money until one side can't match the other's offer and then they capitulate. This is why the city of Urbino was so incredible, because they offered their armies as mercenaries, but once they made a contract, they never went back on it, no matter how much more they were offered. So, they got paid by the other cities to just not fight for ANYONE.

    I feel like its relevant to mention the incest rumors were started by Lucreiza's first husband, who, after a literal TRIAL where the whole Borgia family publicly alleged he was impotent, alleged that Lucrezia was having an affair with both her father and brother. It was most likely not true, there's never been any evidence to back up the rumors, but it was fueled by the fact that during the trial in which they claimed Lucrezia was a virgin, she was apparently pregnant from an affair with a servant in her husbands household. They kept her out of sight while testifying and after the trial she was sent to a convent for a little under a year, and a while after that a child was added into her fathers household. There's also never been proof that the mystery child was hers, as they always claimed he was the Pope's son, but the boys mother was never identified. If anyone is interested, the tv show "the Borgias" on showtime is very well done, and Lucrezia's life is as fascinating as her brothers imo.

I didn’t know it was humanly possible to be that wrong! The songs are ALL certified bops, but this one is RIDICULOUSLY good, like it had no right to go so hard but I’m so glad it did. 😂

    tell the schools to give teachers a raise. Look at all the equipment they're using along with the many different forms of media they use. And they also get multiple big name sponsors. They're production budget is big. If teachers had the same budget, I'm sure classes would be just as fun. years ago my school was one of the first in my state to get those electronic smart boards and my history teacher did something similar to as the show but at a much smaller scale obviously, they just used kahoot lol

    24:50 worth noting that Machiavelli was also writing in exile, having worked for the Florentine republic and tortured by the Medici family for doing so, with "The Prince" serving as a job resume as much as a poli-sci treatise. If you read his "Discourses on Livy" you'll see that this guy loved republics, but recognized that a dictator (think less Mussolini and more Cincinnatus) would probably be the only way to unite Italy with a standing, Italian-born army rather than foreign mercenaries. the dude wanted what we would recognize as a "modern" nation-state, but ironically is remembered as a mustache-twirling caricature of himself because he was working to maneuver his way back to his home. still not a totally great guy, but not nearly as cartoonishly callous as folks tend to portray him. That being said i appreciate the Professor's candid nuance about big Mach.
