This map focuses on the strategically important dukedom of Montferrat in northern Italy. During its turbulent existence, it was a heavily contested region between French, Spanish and Imperial (Holy Roman Empire) forces. By 1631, its influence waned as large parts of its territory were ceded to the Dukes of Savoy.
