Packet 4: Bonus 10
Answer the following about the historical accuracy of Assassin’s Creed. For 10 points each:
[10h] The opening of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood depicts Ezio and a member of this family named Caterina being woken up by an attack from Cesare Borgia ("CHAY-za-ray BORE-ja"). The Golden Ambrosian Republic was ended by a duke from this family named Francesco.
ANSWER: House of Sforza [accept Caterina Sforza or Francesco Sforza]
[10e] Assassin's Creed III depicts violence committed by Samuel Adams’ Sons of Liberty in this city, despite the fact that its 1773 tea party was largely non-violent.
ANSWER: Boston [accept Boston Tea Party]
[10m] Assassin's Creed: Shadows potentially over-exaggerates the role of Yasuke, an African-born retainer who served this leader. The game does, however, accurately depict this man’s death during the Honnō-ji Incident following the betrayal of Akechi Mitsuhide (“ah-KEH-chee MEET-soo-hee-day”).
ANSWER: Oda Nobunaga [accept either underlined part]
