    There is a NPC in Skullgirls named "Lorenzo Medici". Here is what the Wikia has to say about him (copy-pasting): "Lorenzo is named after Lorenzo de' Medici (Lorenzo of the city of Medici), an Italian banker who was the de facto ruler of the Republic of Florence during the Renaissance period. He was also one of the most powerful and violent crime bosses at the time."

      I lived in Florence for a LONG time, so I know more than a little something about it. While it is true that the Medici had become rich thanks to involvement in the bank business, and while it is true that they committed many atrocities on their way to prominence (the most infamous being the massacre of the rival famili, the Pazzi), Lorenzo himself was not a banker nor a crime boss.

      He was the honest to God feudal lord of the city, and one of the most prominent political figures in the entire country at the time. Not to mention, a skilled war tactician and a refined lover of arts: in fact, he is credited as being one of the minds behind the Renaissance as a whole.
