Event
Growing Influence of the Italian Merchants

Italian merchants from Venice and Genoa have long enjoyed extensive privileges within our ports, exemptions secured through treaties and mutual necessity. Their ships bring wealth and goods, but their autonomy increasingly draws criticism from local Burghers and officials alike.
To impose new taxes would assert sovereignty and strengthen the treasury, yet doing so risks diplomatic fallout with powerful maritime republics whose influence extends far beyond the Black Sea, infringing on decade-long trade deals already in place.
