A turbulent political history included periods of rule by the powerful Medici family, religious and republican revolution. From 1865 to 1870 the city was also the capital of the Kingdom of Italy.

Florence is renowned as the “Jewel of the Renaissance” and The Uffizi and The Accademia Gallery ( where the famous” David of Michelangelo” is kept) are the two best examples to explain the reasons of this name.
