First Sentence

The emerging and then consolidating European monarchic states of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries inherited from the powerful examples of the medieval city-states such as Milan, Florence, Bologna, Genoa, and Venice a tradition of continuous interventions of the central power in the economic and social life of their communities, along with a strong impulse toward an incessant warfare of competition and aggression.
