  • Alexander had widespread public support, and was capable, diplomatic and skilled, as well as rich, hedonistic and concerned with ostentatious displays. While Alexander at first tried to keep his role separate from family, his children soon benefited from his election, and received huge wealth; Cesare became a cardinal in 1493.. Relatives arrived in Rome and were rewarded and the Borgais were soon endemic in Italy. While many other Popes had been nepotists, Alexander was promoting his own children and had a range of mistresses, something that further fuelled a growing and negative reputation. At this point some of the Borgia children also began to cause problems, as they annoyed their new families, and at one point Alexander appears to have threatened to excommunicate a mistress for returning to her husband.
    Alexander soon had to navigate a way through the warring states and families which surrounded him, and at first he tried negotiation, including the marriage of a twelve year old Lucrezia to Giovanni Sforza. He had some success with dipomacy, but it was short lived. Meanwhile Lucrezia's husband proved a poor soldier, and he fled in opposition to the pope, who then had him divorced. We don't know why he fled, but accounts claim he believed rumours of incest between Alexander and Lucrezia that persist to this day.Alexander looked at the condition of the Papal States, left in disarray after the first French invasion, and decided military action was needed. He thus ordered Cesare, who was in Milan with his army, to pacify large areas of central Italy for the Borgias. Cesare had early success, although when his large French contingent returned to France he needed a new army and returned to Rome. Cesare seemed to have control over his father now, and people after papal appointments and acts found it more profitable to seek out the son instead of Alexander. Cesare also became Captain-General of the churches armies, and a dominant figure in central Italy. Lucrezia's husband was also killed, possibly on the orders of an angry Cesare, who also was rumoured to be acting against those who badmouthed him in Rome by assassinations. Murder was common in Rome, and many of the unsolved deaths were attributed to the Borgias, and usually Cesare.
    With a substantial war chest from Alexander, Cesare conquered., and at one point marched to remove Naples from the control of the dynasty who had given the Borgias their start. When Alexander went south to oversee the division of land, Lucrezia was left behind in Rome as regent. The Borgia family gained great amounts of land in the Papal States, which were now concentrated in the hands of one family more than ever before, and Lucrezia was packed off to marry Alfonso d'Este to secure a flank of Cesare's conquests.
    The Fall of the Borgias
    As the alliance with France now seemed to be holding Cesare back, plans were made, deals struck, wealth acquired and enemies murdered to take a change of direction, but in mid-1503 Alexander died of malaria. Cesare found his benefactor gone, his realm not yet consolidated, large foreign armies in the north and south, and himself also deeply ill. Furthermore, with Cesare weak, his enemies rushed back from exile to threaten his lands, and when Cesare failed to coerce the papal conclave he retreated from Rome. He persuaded the new pope to re-admit him safely, but that pontiff died after twenty six days and Cesare had to flee. He supported a great Borgia rival, Cardinal della Rovere, as Pope Julius III, but with his lands conquered and his diplomacy rebuffed an annoyed Julius arrested Cesare. Borgias were now thrown out of their positions, or forced into keeping quiet. Developments allowed Cesare to be released, and he went to Naples, but he was arrested by Ferdinand of Aragon and locked up again. Cesare did escape after two years, but was killed in a skirmish in 1507. He was just 31. europeanhistory...

    Pope Alexander was not so different than many other popes, and the other Borgia namely Cesare and Juan participated in the same aristocratic decadence that most nobles were consumed in at that time....... The Cardinals who scorned the name Borgia were hypocrites, guilty of the same crimes they accuse!

    • @TheDoomWaffles
      @TheDoomWaffles 9 лет назад +13

      Julius Cheeser This is very true. Much of the most notorious slander that evolves around the Borgia family are the product of slanderous propaganda that was articulated by a pope that came after him, Pius III. Juan was actually Gioffre Borgia, but they chose to name him Juan in the series to perpetuate and underline the Spanish heritage, because at the time there were real tensions between France and Spain that make for a much better story to tell.
      Stories have their historical use, they really do but at the end of the day we have to make the distinction between rumor, conjecture and uncritical thinking as opposed to critical thinking and studying historical sources and their reasoning behind creating something that people at a later age were meant to read.
      Series like the Borgias, Rome, Spartacus and VIkings take big liberties with historical accuracy for the sake of dramatic effect, it's not a bad thing because it inspires interest in the era so people may investigate historical sources that exist of the time, to get as close as they can to what may have actually happened, instead that what we want to believe has happened.

      He was great. He was an upper greater narcissist like his namesake Julius, and so did have oodles of charisma, which no doubt propelled him forward in terms of achieving lofty ambitions. He was just unfortunate at the end, and after a meteoric rise, Cesare had just as big a drop off. He was known as the most handsome man of his time and so the effects of longterm effects of Syphilis on his looks must have had as big an effect on the mans morale (being a somatic narcissist) just as much as the loss of his lands, revenue and titles no doubt, all which contributed to which I believe was basically a suicide by proxy.

    Alexander VI has had an unfairly bad press. Sure he was nepotistical, but given the vicious nature of italian power politics (still can be even today,) nepotistical popes felt the only people they could rely on were their own family. Theologically conservative, yes he was attempting to create a permanent Borgia dynasty in italy but he did NOT always act purely in the interests of his family, but for what he saw as the greater good of the papal state.
    I think that precisely because he was a foreigner, he could take the long view, and saw that Italy's weakness was its disunity and his ultimate aim was to unite Italy under one ruler. If so, he was centuries ahead of his time. He also offered sanctuary to Jews fleeing persecution, and skilfully protected the people of Rome from sack at the hands of Charles VIII, using purely diplomatic means and he rigorously enforced law and order on the streets for the protection of the common people (they loved him.)
    He also subverted the power of the Roman barons -which was precisely why he was so hated. He preferred discussion with heretics rather than persecution. Sure he used dubious means, but in fifteenth century Italy you couldn't do anything by wearing kid gloves.

    • @SuperRichyrich11
      @SuperRichyrich11 9 лет назад +6

      Spot on!
      You can't judge him without taking the context into consideration. Even more so, I think the Borgia weren't so different from the other Nobel families, especially the Italian nobles. AS you said, the reason he was so hated was because of how he disrupted their power - where before then the Orsini and Colona had virtually free reign over Rome and themselves stocked the Vatican with many of the ilk.. so it's hypocritical of them to point to Nepotism.... which was anything but rare at the time...

    • @SuperRichyrich11
      @SuperRichyrich11 9 лет назад +10

      honcan69 Those were rumors... any evidence?
      Contemporary Historians and scholars did not write much ill of the Borgia, at least not an overly unusual amount compared to other Popes such as Sixtus IV and Innocent X. Almost all negative references come from their enemies... you don't find that suspicious?
      Lets not forget the smear campaign from Pope Julius II immediately after tricking Cesare Borgia. There is little evidence of disdain and enmity between Cardinals Borgia and Della Rovere. In fact, they frequently worked with each other for long periods of time without incident and both spoke highly of each other. While they were rivals, many historians assert that the degree of their enmity was greatly exaggerate by popular culture and historical revisionism.
      Della Rovere's wrath upon Ascension to the Papacy could simply be explained away by the fact that he was routinely out-manuevered and stumped by both Rodrgio Borgia and Cesare for what... 30 years??? With a man of his diligence, determination and ego it only makes sense.

      It's an idea that is promoted by the famous Alexander Dumas ( count of monte christo, three musketeers) Da vinci worked with Cesare during the time he painted his christ. (Salvator Mundi). So in Dumas' mind Cesare must have been his inspiration. Not so strange. Years earlier Rodrigo had his son painted as the christ by Vanucci ( Il Perugino)

    I'm related to the Borgia through Cardone/d'Este line. (on my dad side who interestingly enough is Italian and Jewish I always wondered if some of the royal families in Italy had Jewish blood lines I still think that perhaps some of those rumors are true) It's nice to hear some positive stuff about that side of the family LOL it's incredible how political PR can destroy the reputation of a family. There's absolutely no proof for most of the claims. Although I do have my doubts about my great great plus grandmother's brother being innocent of killing her second husband. I come through the third husband's to Lucretia (d'Este) interesting dialogue thanks for the post. I wish I knew the absolute truth, but I'm sure I never will. Still I appreciate his story ends that are willing to take another look at this family and perhaps see them in a more truthful light. It was strange for me to find out I'm related to Padre Pio (pietrelicina , Benevento Italy , )through the same Cardone surname) and also this pope Alexander guy and I'm Ashkenazi Jewish on my mother side. History definitely has a sense of humor.

      You're are absolutely right history has proven his skin color as dark as you and me. The Bible has proven that Jesus feet was like burnt brass, and what would happen if you put flames on brass........plus his texture of his hair as thick as wool, which doing the time of Whites exploring the the continent of Africa noting in their diaries about dark skin people and their hair texture being as thick as sheep wool. That being said don't listen to those Demons who think their people was the first in everything, discovery everything (Columbus), invented everything. Our ancestors was great people, who love all God's people, but just like the Devil who will smile in your face call you a friend and later stab you in the back and steal everything "History, Country, Culture" and tell you a thousand years later it was their people who did it. Also the first Jews was black and still are black if you travel throughout the northern part of Africa. Racist White are thieves if you do your history, they stolen our history and made it theirs, for one Medicine, Astronomy, Math, Science all came from Timbuktu, and one of their great minds Socrates have study there. They also benefit from this great country they stolen and we built for them. That being said, we can show facts, all they can do is call you names and say you are a fool. MUCH LOVE!!!

    There's a debate on RUclips with GOCC and a Jewish rabbi online. "A Jewish confession." That was unlike anything I've ever heard before. Watch GOCC's teaching on, "The replacement of Hebrew Israelites with European Jews" Some deep history many won't be able to digest. The bible says that, "the son of perdition must be revealed" Biblical breakdown according to end time prophecy.

I also know Jesus is in charge of the Roman Catholic Church.

    Some of you need to study the genealogy of Yahshuah/Jesus. Starting with Genesis. We tend to skip over genealogy, however, many clues were given in studying the genealogy. Check out Jacob and Esau. Also study the caucus mountains, Kazarians and where they originated. Of course caucus mountains and Kazarians would be a different source of research. Read about who the Shemites are. The answer will be plain to see as far as Jesus's race. Check out DEUTERONOMY 28. That's just one of the chapters that indicates the Israelites being thrown into slavery and shipped to the 4 corners of the Earth which includes America and the Caribbean. Study with and open mind and search for the truth. It's as plain as day. There's a series called :Whited Out. It's a 5 part series. You can find it here on RUclips. Happy researching. Shalom
