Prisoners captured during the invasion of Sicily march through the streets of Syracuse. July 1943.
Syracuse was settled by Greek colonists in 734 B.C., and quickly became the most powerful city in Sicily and Magna Grecia. It soon rivaled Athens and Sparta, and squared off against the Carthaginians on equal footing. What advantages allowed it grow so large and rich?

The beautiful island of Ortygia, Syracuse in Sicily is often overlooked by American tourists traveling to Italy. Being less than a square mile in size, it's easy to absorb so much of the island in a very short time, and the seafood is incredible! reddit.com/gallery/prnknv

Death to Tyrants Syracuse/Sicily Mission
Itβs my first time playing Syracuse and things were going quite well considering I have one of the strongest nations on my border. I had just finished the first Syracuse mission tree and moved onto the Death to Tyrants tree because I wanted to flip to a republic, but it didnβt quite go as planned. I mad a balls of the thing and was locked out of progressing further because I didnβt want to have a civil war and the other two options didnβt end how I wanted them to. I was really just wondering if I can do that missions again in 20 years after the abandon timer is up, or am I unable to become a republic this way now?
Not going to lie, it kind of bums me out that I was born in a country of strip centers and parking lots and not a place like this. (Ortigia-Syracuse, Sicily) Better urban design, but also architecture with roots.
