'''Mediterranean Defense''' was the name given to the [[Apprentices|apprentice]] contracts in [[Constantinople]] during the [[Renaissance]].

==History==
During the early 16th Century, the Assassin Brotherhood - under the direction of [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]], the [[Mentor]] of the [[Italian Assassins]] - sought to expand its influence by sending apprentices and recruits to cities controlled by the [[Templars]]. Their exploits ranged from simple acts, such as protecting merchants and officials who were loyal to the Brotherhood or against the Templars, to greater plots involving assassinations and freeing jailed allies. Some special requests - specifically the bomb ingredient quests of [[Piri Reis]] - involved the Assassins traveling to specific cities and mapping the area.

Many of these cities were eventually freed from Templar rule and came under Assassin control. The Brotherhood took special care to improve the standard of living in these regions by improving daily incoming and providing many opportunities for their newly-liberated citizens. The apprentices who were sent on these missions gained experience, and as a whole, the Assassin Order gained funds to further their operations, as well as other rewards.

A constant danger, however, was the possibility of Templar reprisal. Contracts must be completed regularly to maintain the Assassins' control of the city. Should the Assassins' control fall too low, Templars will try to retake the city and Ezio will have to assign assassins to the Defending the City contract in order to regain full control.

The cities to which Ezio was able to send his recruits were:
*[[Marseille]]
*[[Damascus]]
*[[Jerusalem]]
*[[Madrid]]
*[[Lisbon]]
*[[Genoa]]
*[[Tunis]]
*[[Tripoli]]
*[[Algiers]]
*[[Alexandria]]
*[[Bursa]]
*[[Athens]]
*[[Rhodes]]

The level of the assassins you chose to send on these missions affects the chances of success or failure. Some of the easier missions should be used for the lower level assassins. If you choose to send lower level assassins on harder missions, be sure to send others with them or more experienced assassins. Be sure to take extra caution when evaluating the chances of success, because even if it is a 90% chance of success there still is that small chance that they might fail( it happens). It is okay to send higher level assassins on easy missions, but be sure to challenge them once in a while. The main goal of these missions is to reclaim all the cities(except Rhodes) back for the assassins.v

==Trivia==
*There is an [[Assassin's Creed: Revelations Achievements|achievement]] in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]'' for controlling all of the cities (except Rhodes) simultaneously.
*Managing Assassin Guilds in reclaimed cities is the easiest method of removing Assassins should you wish to recruit more apprentices.
