Doges of Venice

During the Migration period were the island who would become Venice populated by people who fled from the conquering Germanic tribes. Venice was never conquered by the Langobards in the sixth and seventh centuries and it remained a Byzantine enclave in Italy. The attacks from the Langobards and also the Croats led however to the appointment of a doge (i.e. duke) in 697 to lead the defence and to rule the city. These doges were elected for life and despite attempts to make the office hereditary would Venice remain a republic throughout its independence. The ties to the Byzantine Empire where gradually weakened and from the middle of the ninth century can Venice be considered as a independent state. During the Middle age became Venice a rich merchant city and a local great power who controlled several islands and coastal regions in the Mediterranean. However, when nation states and strong empires emerged in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries was Venice age of greatness over and it was thereafter an Italian petty state among others. Finally it was annexed by Austria in 1797 as a consequence of the Napoleonic Wars.
