During the rule of Lorenzo the Magnificent, after the Peace of Lodi, until French intervention in Italy called by Ludovico il Moro, worked in Italy what is called "Italian Confederation.
This confederation was intended to prevent the conquest of Venice a position of dominance in the peninsula.

The failure of this alliance is mainly due to two people, Piero de 'Medici and Ludovico il Moro.
The confederation was, however, Lorenzo living longer, becoming a sort of federation capable of functioning?
At least keep away from Italy France and Spain and store to "Bel Paese", that spark of independence that would allow her to play some role in European policy?

What would be the POD allows the creation of this kind Confederation?
And what the effects of a "state" capable of a certain Italian political freedom?
What happens in Venice at the Turkish?
And Spain just will not Milan?

Before to start workint at this i'll be glad to hear your opinions

Thanks
