ヴィスコンティ家
When his father died, Ludovico set a policy of friendship with the nearby Milan and their rulers, the House of Visconti. He married Alda, daughter of Obizzo III d'Este, Marquis of Ferrara. Their son Francesco was married to Agnese, daughter of Bernabò Visconti. He also established trade links with the Republic of Venice. Internally, Ludovico built or strengthened fortifications in his land, but also faced two plots, including one by Antonio Gonzaga in 1373.
