==Borgia Family and their enemies==

Pope Alexander was very ambitious for his children, especially his sons. He was aware that after his death that his family could lose their position and be at the mercy of his enemies. This led him to secure their future through marriages to the great families. However, Alexander was not satisfied with this and sought to establish principalities for his children, in Papal Lands.<ref>Woodward, W.H. <i>Cesare Borgia: A Biography</i>, (Chapman & Hall, London, 1913), p. 78</ref> This was to lead to series of conflicts with some of the most powerful leaders and princes in Italy. Alexander’s aggrandizement of the Borgia Family was to destabilize Italy.
