Silvestro Invrea (Genoa,1530 - Genoa,17 March 1607) was the 86th Doge of the Republic of Genoa.
Silvestro Invrea was elected to the highest dogal position with the elections of March 3,1607,the forty-first in two-year succession and the eighty-sixth in republican history. His dogate passed to the annals for the brevity of the mandate,only 14 days,the shortest after the reform of 1528 and in any case in the history of the doges of Genoa. Already in poor health,he assisted on the morning of the election to the praise of the Dean,only to then retire to his rooms without ever,in fact,ruling one day in the guise of doge. He died on March 17 and there was not even time for the usual and official coronation,an episode that was the first in the history of the Republic of Genoa.

The Doge of Genoa was the head of state of the Republic of Genoa, a city-state and soon afterwards a maritime republic, from 1339 until the state's extinction in 1797. Originally elected for life, after 1528 the Doges were elected for terms of two years. The Republic was ruled by a small group of merchant families, from whom the doges were selected.
The Republic of Genoa was a medieval and early modern maritime republic from the years 1099 to 1797 in Liguria on the northwestern Italian coast. During the Late Middle Ages, it was a major commercial power in both the Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea. Between the 16th and 17th centuries, it was one of the major financial centers in Europe.
