About Alvise Contarini, 106th doge of Venice
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alvise_Contarini
Alvise Contarini (October 24, 1601 – January 15, 1684) was the 106th Doge of Venice, reigning from his election on August 26, 1676 until his death seven and a half years later. He was the eighth and final member of the House of Contarini to serve as Doge of Venice (with the first being Domenico I Contarini, who became Doge in 1043).
His reign was largely peaceful, as the Republic of Venice was still recovering from the Cretan War (1645–1669). However, in the last days of Contarini's reign, hostilities with the Ottoman Empire were rekindled, and Venice began its participation in the Seventh Ottoman-Venetian War, better known as the Morean War (1684–1699).
