'''Romagna''' was a region located in [[Italy]], with [[Forlì]] being its main city.
==Description==


The area was ruled in the late 15th century by [[Caterina Sforza]], an ally of the [[Italian Assassins]]. Largely dominated by marshes, wetlands, and a number of scattered buildings, Romagna also housed the Forlì docks, where ships from other areas docked with the ports. People were often seen fishing from the wharves, or selling fish from market stalls nearby. During the [[Renaissance]], the [[Assassins|Assassin]] [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] visited the location on several occasions.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref>
==History==
The name Romagna came from the Latin word Romània, which was originally the generic name for "land inhabited by Romans", first appearing on Latin documents in the 5th century. It later took on the more detailed meaning of "territory subjected to Eastern Roman rule", whose citizens called themselves Romans (Romàioi in Greek), considering themselves the heirs of Imperial [[Rome]]. Thus the term Romània came to be used to refer to the territory administered by the Exarchate of Ravenna in contrary to other parts of Northern Italy under Lombard rule, named Langobardia or Lombardy. Romània later became Romandìola in [[Wikipedia:Vulgar Latin|Vulgar Latin]], which meant "little Romània", which evolved into Romagna.
In 1480, Ezio Auditore rode into the area, after being chased through the [[Appennine Mountains|Apennine Mountains]] by Borgia soldiers. He used the area to access a ferry up the coast of the Adriatic Sea to [[Venice]] alongside close friend [[Leonardo da Vinci]], after initially being held up due to his lack of paperwork. Caterina Sforza, Countess of Forlì, solved this problem when she took a shine to Ezio, following his rescue of her from an isolated rock on the Forli docks.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />
<p style="border-style:none;margin-top:1em;margin-bottom:1em;">In 1488, after recovering the [[Ezio's Apple of Eden|Apple of Eden]], Ezio Auditore and his uncle Mario decided to take the Apple to Forl<span style="border-style:none;">ì, where they met with Caterina in the wetlands outside the city. However, upon reaching the city, word spread that the forces of the [[Ludovico Orsi|Ludovico]] and [[Checco Orsi]] had invaded and gained control of the majority of the city. After discovering that the gates to the city were locked, Caterina instructed Ezio to infiltrate the city via a secret entance, which involved Ezio swimming under the city drain and entering from there. Caterina learned that the Orsi brothers had kidnapped her two children, Bianca and Ottaviano. They stated that she had one hour to hand over her father's map detailing the locations of the [[Codex]] pages before the brothers killed her children.</span><ref name="Assassin's Creed II" /></p>
<p style="border-style:none;"><span style="border-style:none;">Ezio departed and headed for the Romagna countryside where he defeated the guards imprisoning Bianca, who then directed him to the location of her brother, Ottaviano. Ezio headed through the marshes to a nearby lighthouse, where he scaled the building, killed Ludovico and rescued Ottaviano. However, upon dispatching of Ludovico, Ezio learnt that the captured siblings had been a distraction, allowing for the theft of the Apple. Ezio hurried back to the city, discovering that Checco had acquired the Apple. Ezio tracked him down and killed the last Orsi brother and retrieved the Apple, though not before Checco managed to stab Ezio in the abdomen, causing him to lose consciousness and drop the Apple. As Ezio awoke, he saw a [[Girolamo Savanorola|black-robed monk]] with a missing finger pick up the Apple and walk away.`</span></p>
==Trivia==
* Before ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'s'' release, developer [[Ubisoft|Ubisoft Montreal]] referred to the area as the "Wetlands."
* Romagna was the poorest region in ''Assassin's Creed II''. Its surrounding area was flooded with dirty water and the buildings were ravaged and overgrown with weeds. Very few [[civilians]] wore affluent clothing (such as feather hats and scarfs), nor did they possess a respectable amount of money to [[Pickpocketing|pickpocket]].
* The Wetland Ebony and Wetland Ivory dyes for Ezio's robes were obtainable in Romagna from any [[Tailor]], and granted the "Perfect Harmony" [[Assassin's Creed II Achievements|Achievement]] when worn together.
* Romagna was the location of the first ''Assassin's Creed II'' [[DLC]], the ''[[Battle of Forlì]]''.
* By downloading the ''Battle of Forlì DLC'', players were able to access the [[Flying Machine]] at anytime on top of the fortress, where a [[Feather]] was also located.
