I want to know how many people know the city of Genoa, called from XIV century the Superb, and its great history.

I certainly know of it, the greatest rival of Venice and Pisa, but I don't know much of its history in specific. John Julius Norwich has written a great popular history of Venice, I guess we could use something like that about Genoa as well.

Maybe someone should do an article on it for allempires.com.

I can do it but I don't know exactly how and I really don't know if my english is so good. I can do it Italian and someone can translate it....maybe.
