Hello @marcoteixeira This is a fascinating piece of Florentine history . The story of Buondelmonte really shows how a single personal decision breaking a marriage promise could ignite such a huge political divide. The description of the murder near the statue of Mars is powerful and symbolic, almost as if destiny itself was tied to that place. It’s striking to see how family honor, revenge, and politics were so deeply connected, eventually shaping centuries of conflict between the Guelphs and Ghibellines. History like this reminds us how personal choices can influence entire societies. Thank you for sharing such a detailed and vivid account.
