Born in 1953 to a poor Catholic family in the island nation of Medici, he enlisted in the Medici Officer Corp in 1975 and very quickly ascended to the rank of General because of his brilliant tactic planning and leadership skills, and because Medici was in dire need of a proper officer corp.
After being asked to arrest an underground Catholic Parrish, Di Ravello fought against this and in 1984 he was court-martialed from the army. Shortly after he gathered support of his former troops and some of the civilian populace and attempted to storm the capital, however he was beaten back and sent to the mountains. He would ask Sicily for help, which Sicily would send 15 operatives to assist him in a second attempt. In this attempt, he would make much more advancements, and following the assassination of President Dante, he would declare himself Dictator of Medici.
He still rules Medici and is loved by his people. While his rule is strict, it is fair, and he is in great relations with the Pope and Holy See, along with the HRE, where he entrusted Archbishop Rodriguez to handling any Catholic diplomatic affairs to.
