Florence // Italy // 1469-05-03
Niccolò di Bernardo dei Machiavelli, an Italian writer, philosopher, politician and member of the Assassin Brotherhood was born in Florence. Although his family was relatively wealthy, his early life was far from easy, with hardships brought on by debts inherited by his father. Niccolò wanted to sustain the rich intellectual atmosphere that he was raised in and so he devoted himself to his studies and gradually built up a library full of classical works.
