IDS_CAMPAIGN_TEXT,"Italy 1495~~In 1494 King Charles VIII of France invaded Italy, resurrecting the old Angevin claim to the throne of Naples as a pretext.~~He rapidly overran Naples, but the speed of his success provoked Pope Alexander VI (the infamous Rodrigo Borgia) to organise the formation of the Holy League to oppose him, comprising the Papacy, Venice, Milan, Florence, Naples, Mantua, Spain and the Holy Roman Empire. Thus began the series of wars known as the Italian Wars.~~In essence a power struggle between France on one side, and Spain and the Holy Roman Empire on the other, these wars were to last sixty-five years until the Peace of Cateau-Cambrésis in 1559. At the end of the Wars the political map of Italy remained much as it had before the wars began.",
