Rolando de' Rossi

Rolando de' Rossi (c. 1285 – May 1345) was an Italian nobleman and statesman. He was the dominant force in the politics of the commune of Parma from 1322 until 1335, effectively as signore between 1328 and 1331. Under him and his brother, the city accepted the lordship of the King of Bohemia between 1331 and 1333. Ultimately, the failure of his family's political project brought an end Parmesan autonomy. In his later years he was a condottiero for Venice and Florence.
