History

The Dual Planets of Venice were merely a pair of synchronized orbiting water planets near the center of the Old Roman Quadrent, they were two unassuming colony worlds through most of Roman Expansion. At the height of their decadence and corruption, they took upon themselves a project of connecting the two with a giant Space Elevator. The overseer of the project, a Senator named William, began a rebellion with the help of several conspirators, using the Space Elevator as their base of operations. After I highly successful campaign of conquest, almost all of the military power and former territories of Old Roma had fallen under the control of Il Doge and his advisers.
