Ludovico Manin, Doge (venice) : All Data
Ludovico Manin was the last Doge of the Republic of Venice, reigning from 1789 to 1797. During his tenure, he faced significant challenges, including the French Revolutionary Wars. The most important war that occurred during his rule was the War of the First Coalition, which lasted from 1792 to 1797. This conflict saw Venice being invaded by French forces in 1797, leading to the end of the Republic and the establishment of the French-backed Cisalpine Republic. Manin's rule marked the end of over a thousand years of Venetian independence and the beginning of a new era under French influence.
