Italy rises again!

In this timeline, Italy unifies during the 15th and early 16th centuries, why? The Borgia family, who took power through the papacy in 1492, always aspired for the Italian throne, and came close to it. However Pope Alexander VI's (Rodrigo Borgia's) death in 1503 put a stop to that and ended the dynasty, but what if Alexander had lived, say, for about another ten years, how different would Italian and world history be today?
