Event
The Holy League
The fall of Constantinople and the subsequent Ottoman expansion into the Balkans came as a devastating blow to Christendom. As a result, many have been calling us to act in retaliation. As the leader of the Catholic Church, it is our holy duty to gather the maritime powers of Italy and the Mediterranean to our side and call a crusade in order to banish the infidel from Europe for good.
