    Late 15th-century Italian nobleman and Catholic cardinal

    Cesare Borgia[b] (13 September 1475 – 12 March 1507) was a Roman Catholicdeacon—cardinal and later an Italiancondottiero (mercenary).

    He was the illegitimate son of Pope Alexander VI of the AragoneseHouse of Borgia and was a sibling to Lucrezia Borgia.

    After initially entering the Church and becoming a cardinal on his father's election to the papacy, he resigned his diaconal profession after the death of his brother in 1498.

    He was employed as a condottiero for King Louis XII of France around 1500, and occupied both Milan and Naples during the Italian Wars. At the same time, he carved out a state for himself in Central Italy, but he was unable to retain power for long after his father's death.

    Accordingly, his quest for political power was a major inspiration for The Prince by the renowned Florentine historian, Niccolò Machiavelli.[3]
