I think is still tarpley.net - he has one free book - Against Oligarchy, which is also very good, about how Venetian banksters decamped to London ;-)

Venetian banksters? Would that be The Black Nobility of Northern Italy?
Yes.
And some interesting points on the real power (or lack of it) of a Doge, and how that model infiltrated royalty. Britain remains a wonderful model of a pseudo-democracy hiding higher authorities. Thailand adopted the same model, but is more blatant, without the centuries of obfuscation, eg try defining The Crown.
I heard from a less reliable source that The Black Nobility re-camped in Milan, but it makes more sense that they are in London, as I once heard someone say that Rome has the religious power of the world, Washington D.C. has the military power of the world and London has the financial power. I think, however, it may be a case of both London and Milan.
I found a copy of Against Oligarchy on Archive as I do not like reading books from websites. I have been fascinated with this Black Nobility for some time now, but was not able to find any material to study, until now! Thanks! 🙏
I thought it was a book once - sure I have a pdf somewhere - maybe someone created it from the website.
I would assume they spread to all their existing centres. Medieval banking had to have physical offices to process credit notes etc. I think (from memory) the key decision was to find a port from where to expand globally. Venice was a good place for trade with the Near East but was kinda locked in. I'd have to re-read it to see the pivotal decision.
I like Tarpley as a historian - not so keen on his politics - I think taking sides can reduce the ability to see the whole picture clearly.
More than likely. When I went to the site, I found the book broken down into HTML chapters, which I don't like. In any case, I got the PDF, and will listen to some of his talks online, as I learn a lot more in this way. And it helps me to read better when I am already familiar with the content, and the language of the author.
The history of Venice is extraordinary. The other popular port was Genova.
I agree! I actually don't even know how to take side; when people talk about Left or Right, I give them a blank stare. I like the term that Gerald Celente uses when he says "I'm a political atheist!" 😉
Me too!
Have never knowingly waved a flag!!
I have three nationalities - the flags would just get tangled.
🤣🤣🤣
I have one, Italian. I never became a U.S. citizen, although I could have. And I never became an Irish citizen, although I could have there as well.
Nationalism, although very much still alive, is not conducive to a peaceful future for humanity. I'm not sure what would be a good replacement, but we definitely need something better.
