The New Republic

In the turbulent years of the early sixteenth century, Andrea Doria restructured our republic, consolidating the old noble factions into twenty-eight great houses — the Aberghi (Alberghi in standard Italian: great houses) — and granting us a political stability we had long been denied. That same pragmatic spirit reshaped our fleet, redirecting our naval expertise toward service across the Mediterranean rather than tying us to a single strategic posture. This reinvention allows us to maintain our navy at reduced cost and to convert our war galleys to lighter vessels when the moment demands it.
