We present a series of N-body simulations representing the evolution of a galactic nucleus and its stellar content in a nearly one-to-one representation. The aim of this suite of simulations is to shed light on the interplay between nuclear clusters (NCs), super-massive black holes (SMBH) and the galactic nuclei in which they are contained. We modelled galaxies with masses from few times 108 to 1011 M_\odot, hosting in their nucleus a number of globular clusters and, in some cases, a central SMBH.
