Rome's Darkest Hour: The Vengeance of 1527 That Rewrote History

In Rome's Darkest Hour: The Vengeance of 1527 That Rewrote History, you'll uncover a gripping story of betrayal, bloodshed, and revenge that shook the Eternal City to its very core.

The city that once ruled the known world, the heart of the Catholic Church and the Papacy, was about to face a ruthless onslaught by an army driven by desperation, fury, and vengeance. Led by the ambitious Charles de Bourbon, a man once loyal to his kings and empires, the mercenary army had one goal: to make Rome pay for the broken promises of the past.

When Emperor Charles V's unpaid soldiers, betrayed and hungry for revenge, converged on Rome's gates, the Papacy's power crumbled beneath the weight of their fury. Within days, the city would be ravaged, its treasures looted, and its dignity shattered beyond recognition. In this dramatic and intense retelling, discover how the rise and fall of a great empire could hinge on the breaking of a single promise-and how history was forever changed.
