Romagna was one of the regions located in Italy, of which Forlì was its main city. During the Renaissance, it was visited by the Assassin Ezio Auditore da Firenze,
History
The name Romagna comes from the Latin word Romània, which was originally the generic name for "land inhabited by Romans", and first appeared 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), and considered 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 Vulgar Latin, meaning "little Romània", which became Romagna.
Arrival
In the late 15thcentury, Ezio rode into the area, after being chased through the Appennine Mountains by Borgia soldiers, for its access to the Adriatic Sea in the northeastern part of the area during his journey to Venice alongside close friend Leonardo da Vinci.
