What is considered the Kingdom of Italy established from 493 to 553?
Ostrogothic Papacy The Ostrogothic Papacy was a period from 493 to 537 where the papacy was strongly influenced by the Ostrogothic Kingdom, if the pope was not outright appointed by the Ostrogothic King. The selection and administration of popes during this period was strongly influenced by Theodoric the Great and his successors Athalaric and Theodahad. This period terminated with Justinian I's (re)conquest of Rome during the Gothic War (535–554), inaugurating the Byzantine Papacy (537-752).
Etruria Etruria ( ; usually referred to in Greek and Latin source texts as Tyrrhenia Greek: Τυρρηνία ) was a region of Central Italy, located in an area that covered part of what are now Tuscany, Lazio, and Umbria.
