Pisa History
"Pisa was not built in a day"!!
These are the words that appeared in my mind while I was reading the history of Pisa. Here the story begins:
The city was settled approximately on 1000 B.C. as a coastal area. The Romans were the first to crown it as a port city by the second century. Around 11th century, Pisa became very significant as a marine state along with Genoa, Venice and Amalfi. As Pisa was in a flourishing condition with her trading in Middle East, advanced Arabic methodologies just added a “power booster” to it. But Pisa came into conflict with the Saracens that resulted in an offshore territory of Sardegna, Corsica and Balearics. Pisa was just sort of unproductive when it had been occupied by her rival Amalfi in the year 1135. Pisa was then exploited as well. Pisa had another war with Genoa and in 1284 for which she had to pay vehemently. Her convoy was wiped out by Genoa off the Livorno (coast) at Meloria. This triumph over the Pisan facilitated the Genoese to be in a commanding position. They took over Tyrrhenian Sea and dragged Pisa into oblilivion. In course of time, Florence took over Pisa in 1406 while she had to go through mutinies from Pisa although they weren’t so many of them.
Florence ruled over Pisa till the decades of 1860 when all provinces came up with their strategies and thus consolidated themselves to give birth of a single & sovereign "Italy"!
