Monza, formerly known as Tallo_Capitis is a Genoese town located in northwestern Italy south of the Alps, it borders the towns of Genoa, Milan, Venice, Gdynia and Australia.
History
Tallo Capitis era (25 May 2022 - 5 February 2023)
Foundation
Tallo Capitis was an Italian town founded by Tallo_01 on 25 May 2022 together with Dynagal, Vinktulhu, Risoepollo and Byokinu. The period of this administration is from 25 May 2022 to 5 February 2023. This territory was chosen because of its geographical and strategic location towards the centre of Europe. Since the founders had been former SPQR member states on earth mc nova the town sided politically with Venice and collaborated with it for a year. The town had two sections cut by a river; the north where the administrative centre resided and the south, the residential area. One of the important events was the construction of the Florene aqueduct, which survived for a long time. The town grew a lot and in time the first rivalries with the surrounding towns began.
War
Brent, Tallo's neighbour and friend managed to agree peacefully on the division of land, the same was not true with Corsica. The latter, commanded by Adcto, had invaded Liguria and threatened to expand eastwards, cutting off the road. Under Tallo_Capitis was La Spezia, a small town which controlled access to the sea, and was therefore very valuable. The town became inactive, and the surrounding towns took action to acquire it. Adcto refused negotiations and it was war. Clashes and threats led to nothing, and finally, La Spezia was conquered by the Corsicans.
The Last Act
After the defeat, the founders realised the inactivity of Venice and took the decision to move elsewhere. The designated area on Siberia, to have more land at their disposal. Here they built the skeleton of a castle that unfortunately remained unfinished but can still be visited today. After transferring the resources to safety, they moved on to sell the town. The founders did not care who the buyer was, the important thing was to sell it as soon as possible, Venice, France, Spain, many nations were offered it, but nobody wanted it. Some time passed and but the fall of Adcto and the acquisition of Corsica by Genoa was the turning point. The town was sold for 450 gold to Genoese KristauxSoft on the 5th of February 2023. Themirro1 was the mayor to hold the town until it was handed to Sepl3333.
Construction of the Monza Circuit (March 2023 - April 2023)
Mirro handed over the town to Sepl3333 in late March, originally just to hold it. FatihAr, a friend of Sepl and an f1 racing driver, wanted to build an ice racing track in Tallo Capitis. For this purpose the town was renamed into Monza, the location of the irl Autodromo Nazionale di Monza. The pair started by clearing out the buildings made by the original owner but never got to building the actual track. After a few weeks the project was paused.
Inactivity (May 2023 - October 2023)
After failing to build the circuit, Sepl had no motivation to continue playing and became inactive.
Expansion and Development (2024 - 2026)
Shortly after venetian aggression against Monza started, Sepl became motivated again to play emc. Throughout 2024, Monza became one of the most populous towns within Genoa and construction started with the Royal Villa of Monza. 2025 and 2026 saw more sporadic activity in Monza, however during this time Sepl built up pretty much all of Monza's non-mountainous Area, expanding their builds south into the town of Genoa.
