Parma
Parma was a city and commune on the Po plain in Emilia. In 1337 it was under Alberto della Scala of Verona, having submitted to John of Bohemia in 1331.
Milan's Visconti took Parma in 1341, and French garrisons held it from 1500 to 1521. In 1545 Pope Paul III created the duchy of Parma and Piacenza for his son Pier Luigi Farnese. The Farnese ruled until 1731; its cession to France was agreed in 1801, and the Congress of Vienna assigned Parma to Marie Louise in 1815.
