Giovanni Soranzo, Doge (venice) : All Data

Giovanni Soranzo was the Doge of the Republic of Venice from 1312 to 1328. During his reign, he faced several significant conflicts, including the War of Saint Sabas (1323-1328) and the War of Ferrara (1325-1328). The War of Saint Sabas was a conflict between Venice and the Papal States over the control of the monastery of Saint Sabas in the Holy Land. The War of Ferrara, on the other hand, was a territorial dispute between Venice and the Este family over the city of Ferrara. Despite these challenges, Soranzo managed to maintain Venice's influence and power in the region throughout his rule.
