in Genoa and reconstructs its diffusion in England, the Netherlands, and France. At
its inception, the Casa di San Giorgio (1407-1805) was entrusted with managing the
public debt in Genoa. Over time, it took on powers we now ascribe to banks and states,
accruing financial characteristics and fiscal, political, and territorial powers.
As one of the earliest central banks, it ruled territories and local populations for
almost a century. It controlled strategic Genoese possessions near and far, including
the island of Corsica, the city of Famagusta (in Cyprus), and trading posts in Crimea,
the Black Sea, the Lunigiana in northern Tuscany, and various towns in Liguria. In
the early sixteenth century, in his Florentine Histories (Book VIII, Chapter 29),
Niccolò Machiavelli was the first to analyze the relationship between the Casa di
San Giorgio's financial and territorial powers, declaring its possession of territories
as the basis of its ascendancy. Later, the founders of some of the earliest corporations,
including the Dutch East India Company (1602), the Bank of England (1694), and John
Law's Mississippi Company (1720) in France, referenced the model of the Casa di San
Giorgio"
