Siena is a city that is in Tuscany, Italy, and the capital of the province which shares the same name.
History
In the 13th century, the overlords of Siena built the Monteriggioni.[1][2]
In 2012, Abstergo Industries used Siena as a virtual training map during the first[3] and second stage of their Animi Training Program, being introduced to the latter via a system update.[4] The simulation depicted the Piazza del Campo, one of Siena's most recognizable plazas, featuring notable landmarks such as the Palazzo Pubblico and its Torre del Mangia. The Palio di Siena, a traditional medieval horse race that occurred twice a year, was apparently on-going, as horses could occasionally be seen running past. The area had a festive, busy air, with many colorful lanterns and flags strung up as visitors watched the Sienese performers. A slightly more relaxing sight was the Fonte Gaia, a medium-sized fountain that was located at the edge of the plaza. Siena was not programmed to have aesthetic variations. As a result, it could only be used during the late evening.[3][4]
