I read "Romola" by George Eliot, which is set in this period. The politics were complicated. A wikipedia page on Savonarola just to refresh some outline points.

Wikipedia can be dodgy sometimes, and some folks complain it's run by a Jew Jimmy Wales, but it's still okay for many topics sometimes, like red birds or blue birds, big fish or little fish, pine trees or oak trees, motor boat or sail boats, etc.
