Genoa talk to market keeper
Genoa talk to port official


The market keeper's story
A long time ago we lost the war with Venice, but after a trade agreement, merchants in this town can move freely around the Western Mediterranean. Admiral Colon of Spain was originally a sailor born in this town. The port officers know a lot about that.

The port official's story
The Genovese had the best nautical technology and from early times sailed out of the Mediterranean. So the trust of this Western town were built up. Colon relied on his younger brother, who had already moved to Portugal, to begin Atlantic trade.

The merchant of Genoa
The Genovese withdrew from the Eastern Mediterranean after losing the war to Venice. They advanced through the Western Mediterranean and built deep trading ties with Spain and Portugal.
