* [[spoiler: TheDogBitesBack: Two examples. First after years of abuse, cruelty, and utter lack of respect at the hands of his father. Duke Alfonso exploits the tension between the Pope and him, to kill him and seize the throne. Carlo de Medici had to spent his entire life as he put it "waiting in the shadows," as he was both illegitimate and black he was deemed unfit to rule, or even have public life, and was shuttled about by his father. While his father did love him he ultimately put his reputation first, and Carlo was forced into a religious life. Carlo responded by killing Cosimo, and defecting to the Enemies of Man.]]

* ArtisticLicenseHistory: [[spoiler: The second season shows Lorenzo's diplomatic mission as a failure. Whereas in history the mission was a success and led the the lifting of the inderect on Florance.]]
** [[spoiler: Lorenzo actually did have sons: three in fact. Piero who succeeded him; Giovanni who became Pope Leo X(and was consecrated by Pope Sixtus' grand-nephew,) and Giuliano who became Duke of Nemours in the Peerage of France. This makes Lorenzo's Anti-French, Anti-Church policies a tad surprising.]]
