'''Siena''' was a town in [[Tuscany]], and is a playable map in the multiplayer of [[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood|''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood'']].

The location contains a rich night-time carnival theme, that is decorated with fireworks, miniature covered tents, circus performers and horse-back riding (along the map's edges).

Siena is the smallest map in the Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood multiplayer but has become a huge fan favorite mostly because Siena does not have large buildings to climb on, thus people stick mostly to the ground, which allows for easier assassinations and escapes.

In the Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood multiplayer beta, Siena was unlocked a few days after the beta opened, along with the game mode [[Alliance]].

[[File:Castel_Gondolfo.jpg|thumb|Castel Gandolfo.]]
'''Castel Gandolfo''' is a small [[Italy|Italian]] town in Lazio, 30km south-east of [[Rome]]. It is best known as the summer residence of the [[Rodrigo Borgia|Pope]], and is a multiplayer location in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''.<ref name="Assassin's Creed Brotherhood beta dated">''[http://ps3.nowgamer.com/news/4199/assassins-creed-brotherhood-beta-dated Assassin's Creed Brotherhood beta dated]''</ref>

Mostly ground-based, the multiplayer gameplay is a mixture of hide and seek, followed by frequent chases. Railings and balconies also offer perfect spots for air assassinations. Walls against the railings and small tent tops are mostly the only things players can climb up to, and the large interior hosts many hiding places.

'''Castel Gandolfo''' seems to be in permanent party mode, though this is presumably because the [[Rodrigo Borgia|Pope]] may be at the palace.

'''Pienza''' is an Italian commune in the Val d'Orcia in the province of [[Siena]] (Tuscany).
Pienza, formerly known as the Corsignano, is a [[Tuscany|Tuscan]] village where Enea Silvio de Piccolomini, later Pope Pius II, was born. A year after his election in 1459, Pius II raised his native town to city status and Episcopal residence, under the new name "Pienza", derived from Pius. He undertook an extensive program, he asked the architect Bernardo Rossellino intended to make Pienza a model city of the [[Renaissance]]. His death in 1464 put a premature end to his operations: he did have time to build a papal palace and a cathedral.

Pienza is a multiplayer map featured in the ''[[Animus Project Update 2.0]]'' [[DLC|Downloadable Content]] pack for ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'', and was later merged alongside the Mont Saint-Michel map in ''[[The Da Vinci Disappearance]]'' and ''[[Animus Project Update 3.0]]''.

'''Venice''' (Italian: ''Venezia'') was an island city in northern [[Italy]] and capital of the Serenissima Repubblica di Venezia. Famous for its expansive canal system, Venice was one of the largest and wealthiest settlements in Italy during the [[Renaissance]]. It was made up of five main districts: [[San Polo district|San Polo]], [[San Marco district (Venice)|San Marco]], [[Dorsoduro district|Dorsoduro]], [[Cannaregio district|Cannaregio]] and [[Castello district|Castello]].

==History==
During the 15th Century, Venice was capital of the '''Most Serene Republic of Venice''' and its largest city. Historically founded by refugees from the Hunnic and Germanic invasion of Padua, Aquileia, and Altino, Venice developed to become a major trade and naval power in southern Europe, and by the year 1499 was engaged in sporadic conflict with the Ottoman Empire.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref>

Even during the 13th Century Venice had a notable [[Assassin]] presence, the area surrounding Venice was home to an Assassin and his son – [[Domenico Auditore|Domenico]]. Both enjoyed the patronage of the famed explorer [[Marco Polo]], an ally of the Assassins.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II: Auditore Family Crypt">''[[Auditore Family Crypt|Assassin's Creed II: Auditore Family Crypt]]''</ref> Their presence continued on into the 15th Century, occupying positions of command amongst the [[thieves]], [[mercenaries]] and [[courtesans]] of the city.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II"/>

[[File:250px-Palazzo Ducale.jpg|thumb|The Palazzo Ducale]]
By the Renaissance Era, Venice was one of the richest cities in the world. It consisted of five districts. The [[San Polo district]] was the center of commerce, containing many markets, and was also the location of the Venetian Thieves' Guild. The [[San Marco district]] was the administrative center of the city, containing government buildings such as the [[Palazzo Ducale]], the residence of the Doge. The [[Dorsoduro district]] attracted many artists, and was where many festivals in Venice, such as [[Carnevale]], took place. The [[Castello district]] was largely centered around the Venetian military, and was where its powerful navy was based and maintained. The [[Cannaregio district]] was a run-down area that eventually became Venice's ghetto, the area to which Jews were relegated, forbidden to go elsewhere in the city.

Following the Templar failure to capture [[Florence]] during the [[Pazzi conspiracy]], [[Rodrigo Borgia]] and his allies – the [[House of Barbarigo|Barbarigo family]] – step up their plans to take control of the city of Venice. Influencing powerful members of Venetian government, such as [[Carlo Grimaldi]]. The Templars assassinated the Doge [[Giovanni Mocenigo]] and placed one of their own on the throne; [[Marco Barbarigo]]. By this time however, the Florentine Assassin [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] had arrived in Venice and begun to counter the Templar plot.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II"/>

Following the assassination of Marco Barbarigo and the ascension of his brother [[Agostino Barbarigo|Agostino]], an ally to the [[Assassins]], Ezio Auditore chased down the last remaining Barbarigos [[Silvio Barbarigo|Silvio]], cousin to Agostino, and his man servant [[Dante Moro]] to [[L'Arsenale di Venezia]] and liberated the city's military district. It was here that the Assassin learned that the Templar plot to acquire Venice had merely been a distraction for the Assassins', so that the Templars might safely dispatch their vessel to [[Cyprus]].<ref name="Assassin's Creed II"/> Between 1502 and 1503 [[Francesco Vecellio]] and his team of Assassins traveled to Venice to poison the now corrupt and Borgia-influenced Agostino Barbarigo. Before they left he made sure that Agostino's successor was on the Assassins' side.

Annually Venice hosted the famed [[Carnevale]] in the southern part of the city.
