The House of Sforza was a prominent family in the Italian city of Milan, which rose to power during the Renaissance.

The House was founded by Giacomo Attendolo, a condottiero from Romagna who would pass his nickname of Sforza to his descendants. His son Francesco would become Duke of Milan when the Visconti line produced no issue.

Francesco's successor was Galeazzo Maria, who was assassinated in a Templar plot orchestrated by Rodrigo Borgia on 26 December 1472 despite Giovanni Auditore's best efforts to save the Duke.
