- Caterina Sforza, known as The Tigress of Forli (la tigre), for her her ruthless ways of defending Forli and Imola during the 15th century in Italy. She was not one to back down, even when it came to a fight with the Pope and his son Cesare Borgia.
While her main concern may have been defending her borders, she found time for love after her marriage to Girolamo Riario. She may have lost her power and rule of Forli and Imola, but her marriage to Giovanni de Medici would lead to her grandson becoming the Grand Duke of Florence.

I portray Contessa Caterina Sforza and have been researching her life. Most historians agree that Machiavelli was embellishing or outright lying about the skirt lifting that probably never happened. I'm currently re-reading 'The Tigress of Forli' by Elizabeth Lev. A fantastic source and one I highly recommend.
Thank you for your recommendation regarding the Tigress of Forli I will try to order from used books,😊
@@tanyaleef5138 it's a great book by a historian. I'm happy I found that source.
For sure! That’s why i made sure to mentioned it was a rumor and just interesting story they have about her. Thanks for watching and great rec!
"Most historians" weren't there At that time-🤣🤣🤣 Machiavelli WAS..
She said about her children, “I can make more!”
It's said, pope Alexander once noted that Caterina was the only "man" in the Sforza family

The noble woman who doesn't take crap from anyone.
I learnt about these characters names through Assassin's creed rest i searched myself.
Hi Lynny, I've been really enjoying your videos, thank you for your work. I was wondering if you ever list the references you use? I had a question about your Easter video and where you found your information about how they celebrated and the clothes that were worn during that time.
I love this lady,

Haha 😄 have you seen her in the show Borgias?
@@historybylynny I just started watching the Borgias (so late to the game, I held off as long as I could). But I can already tell if Ceterina is in it, that I’m going to end up routing for her!! 😂 And if you feel like sharing, what you think of her & the Borgias? And which female figure from this period you’re drawn to or greatly admire?
