Tribuno Memmo (died 991) was the 25th Doge of Venice who served from 979 to 991.
He was illiterate and according to preserved documents,he signed via signum manus .
He was rich,partly due to marriage to dogaressa Marina Candiano,daughter of the 22nd Doge Pietro IV Candiano. They had a son,Maurizio.
It seems that he had only moved into the Ducal Palace toward the end of his dogeship. It was still in repairs following the fire which occurred during the overthrow of Pietro IV Candiano. During his dogeship,St Mark's Basilica became by decree a ducal property,a sort of private chapel in which the ecclesiastical functions were delegated to the primicerius . On 7 June 983,Emperor Otto II renewed the commercial privileges that had already been enjoyed by many previous Doges.
He died in 991 and was succeeded by Pietro II Orseolo.
Year 959 (CMLIX) was a common year starting on Saturday of the Julian calendar.
Year 976 (CMLXXVI) was a leap year starting on Saturday of the Julian calendar.
Year 932 (CMXXXII) was a leap year starting on Sunday of the Julian calendar.
Pietro II Orseolo (961−1009) was the Doge of Venice from 991 to 1009. He began the period of eastern expansion of Venice that lasted for the better part of 500 years. He secured his influence in the Dalmatian Romanized settlements from the Croats and Narentines,freed Venetia from a 50-year-old taxation to the latter,and started Venetia's expansions by conquering the islands of Lastovo (Lagosta) and Korčula (Curzola) and acquiring Dubrovnik (Ragusa).
Pietro I Candiano was briefly the sixteenth Doge of Venice in 887.
Pietro II Candiano was the nineteenth Doge of Venice between 932 and 939. He followed Orso II Participazio (912–932) to become Doge in 932.
Maurizio Galbaio was the seventh traditional,but fifth historical,Doge of Venice from 764 to his death. He is considered to be the first great doge,who reigned for 22 years and set Venice on its path to independence and success.
The House of Orseolo was a powerful Venetian noble family descended from Orso Ipato and his son Teodato Ipato,the first Doges of Venice. Four members of the Orseolo family became Doges,Commander of the Venetian fleet,and King of Hungary. They reconstructed St Mark's Basilica and the Doge's Palace after the revolution.
Pietro III Candiano was the Doge of Venice from 942 until 959. He was the son of Pietro II Candiano.
Pietro I Orseolo OSBCam,also named Peter Urseulus,(928–987) was the Doge of Venice from 976 until 978. He abdicated his office and left in the middle of the night to become a monk. He later entered the order of the Camaldolese Hermits of Mount Corona. He is venerated as a saint in the Catholic Church. In 1733 the Venetian librarian Giuseppe Bettinelli published an edition of a biography written by the Friar Fulgenzio Manfredi in 1606.
Agnello Participazio was the tenth traditional and eighth (historical) doge of the Duchy of Venetia from 811 to 827. He was born to a rich merchant family from Heraclea and was one of the earliest settlers in the Rivoalto group of islands. His family had provided a number of tribuni militum of Rivoalto. He owned property near the Church of Santi Apostoli. A building in the nearby Campiello del Cason was the residence of the tribunes. Agnello was married to the dogaressa Elena.
Pietro IV Candiano (925–976) was the twenty-second (traditional) or twentieth (historical) doge of Venice from 959 to his death. He was the eldest son of Pietro III Candiano,with whom he co-reigned and whom he was elected to succeed.
Giovanni II Participazio was the thirteenth (historical) or fifteenth (traditional) Doge of Venice after the death of his father,Orso I,in 881 until his resignation in 887. Prior to that,he co-ruled with his father.
Domenico Selvo was the 31st Doge of Venice,serving from 1071 to 1084. During his reign as Doge,his domestic policies,the alliances that he forged,and the battles that the Venetian military won and lost laid the foundations for much of the subsequent foreign and domestic policy of the Republic of Venice. He avoided confrontations with the Byzantine Empire,the Holy Roman Empire,and the Roman Catholic Church at a time in European history when conflict threatened to upset the balance of power. At the same time,he forged new agreements with the major nations that would set up a long period of prosperity for the Republic of Venice. Through his military alliance with the Byzantine Empire,Emperor Alexios I Komnenos awarded Venice economic favors with the declaration of a golden bull that would allow for the development of the republic's international trade over the next few centuries.
Otto Orseolo was the Doge of Venice from 1008 to 1026. He was the third son of Pietro II Orseolo and Maria Candiano,whom he succeeded at the age of sixteen,becoming the youngest doge in Venetian history.
Vitale Candiano was the 24th doge of the Republic of Venice.
Pietro Loredan of the noble Loredan family,was the 84th Doge of Venice,reigning from 1567 to 1570.
