Ferrara is an Italian two province country in the Emilia-Romagna area. It belongs to the Holy Roman Empire. Ferrara is the primary nation of the Romagnol culture.

As the heart of the Renaissance, our nation is blossoming culturally. We have just entered the beginning of what looks like a prolonged artistic rebellion, especially in the field of architecture and literature. The cultural evolution is not aiding our country in maintaining peace within our borders however. Our country is continuously stricken by foreign states seeking power and territorial gain.
