Icon Azzo VIII, Signore (Signoria of Ferrara) : All Data

Azzo VIII was the Signore of the Signoria of Ferrara from 1300 to 1307. During his reign, he faced several significant conflicts. One of the most notable wars was the War of the Sicilian Vespers, which occurred from 1282 to 1302, overlapping with Azzo VIII's rule. This war was a struggle for control over Sicily between the Angevins and the Aragonese. Another conflict that took place during his tenure was the War of the Lombard League, which lasted from 1294 to 1302. This war involved various Italian city-states, including Ferrara, fighting against the expansionist ambitions of the Kingdom of Naples. Azzo VIII's rule coincided with these tumultuous times, as he navigated the challenges posed by these wars.
