Starting in 1499, Naples, and the other authorities, all fancy controlling power of Italy going into the early 16th centuries and are willing to fight. Who will have the predominate role in the Italian politics and governing body? Who will prevail as the leader as Naples, Venice, Pope, Turkey, Milan, France, Florence, and Austria take the stage to negotiate, back-stab, and battle? In the years leading up to this horrific ordeal, Naples has been able to set alliances with Venice, Turkey, Pope, and France. Amid the strategic planning, for in whom the allies need to be to prevail, not only staying alive but also having a significant say in how the country needs to move forward.
As the conflicts impel forward, Naples is seeking out whom they may attack and devour to gain superior status throughout Italy. Pope appears to be the most vulnerable as they are attacking Venice in the North as they take Dalmatia.  With the Pope and Venice allies with Naples, turning on Pope would give the impression as to Naples reinforcing their ties with Venice.  Therefore, Naples takes Ancona from the Pope, in an attack from the South that would lead to attacks that are to be far too much for Pope to handle in the looming years. 

As Naples acquires more territory, seizing land and taking on new armies and fleets, becoming stronger sequentially creating more dignity for themselves. Even though Naples never fully trusted Venice, nonetheless with the help of Venice, Naples invaded the land of Pope.  Then, encircling the Pope, destroying them and therefore taking on more armies for the capability to hold onto the land and to seize more land, Naples was successful in their cause. Sending fear throughout all of Italy and all wanting to be their allies.

With fear struck into Florence, Venice allying with Naples taking over their territory, it was then time to move on devising a plan to take back the territory from France.  By Naples moving fleets into place, with an army moving south, France timidly moved to the east into Palermo, fleeing for their lives, knowing Naples was on the verge to destroy of them as they had done to the countries before them.  France hardly even touched the land of Palermo as they scurried transversely.  With every passing day, France seeing the Naples� fleets moving closer, anticipating the cost of their lives try to run to the sea but are cut off in their first attempt setting up a crucial element.  By keeping Naples from surrounding them, France still had breath.
With France moving farther south, close to the land owned by Naples, sending Naples to conjecture as they saw the French fleet off the coast. Then the attacks ensued as France took Messina from Naples, ransacking the villages and desecrating all throughout their path. Naples, in disbelief as France was allies, took to actions menacing the French orally and actually sending fear throughout their encampments.  Yet, at this same juncture, Naples is fighting Florence in the North, where Naples destroyed of Florence, keeping the fleets unfeasibly from attacking France in the south.
In the oncoming months preceding France�s first fleeing attempt, with Naples formulating a plan to devour France, Naples derived a plan to attack Turkey, Venice, and Florence gaining more territory, creating more armies and becoming more influential in the route Italy is to take with the future. Taking the initial shortfall and being optimistic by means of attacking France in Palermo as they fled south by the ways of the sea, attacking Turkey at Tunis and prevailing, yet the plan to attack Venice failed as they countered and took a territory of Naples, nevertheless Florence was not so providential and lost Arezzo to Naples.
Even though Naples only controlled 10 power centers, one behind Venice the leader, they seem more set to build an empire.  With the capability to defend their territory more easily than Venice, engendering more secure allies, it would seem as if Naples has the edge in the coming years. With the ability to band with Austria and negotiate with Florence as allies, Naples would be set for action and abolishing Turkey, while at the same time Austria and Florence group and take out Milan and France. Leaving Venice with their backs to the egress. Letting Austria fall south on Venice, Florence set in sea bound, while Naples takes out the south and taking the escape routes of sea away. Moreover, placing havoc on the land of Venice and curtailing the control to three constituencies. Withal we do not know the future; therefore, only time in the coming years shall this matter become resolved.  For time holds the key to all answer, some ripostes just necessitate more time than others.
