Republic of Florence The Republic of Florence, also known as the Florentine Republic (Italian: "Repubblica Fiorentina" ; ] ), was a medieval and early modern state that was centered on the Italian city of Florence in Tuscany. The republic originated in 1115, when the Florentine people rebelled against the Margraviate of Tuscany upon the death of Matilda, a woman who controlled vast territories including Florence. The Florentines formed a commune in her successors' place. The republic was ruled by a council, known as the signoria. The signoria was chosen by the "gonfaloniere" (titular ruler of the city), who was elected every two months by Florentine guild members.
