Venetian-Genoese wars (1 janv. 1256 – 1 janv. 1381)

Description:

Throughout this period, Venice fought an intermittent war with the Genoese. There were four bouts of open warfare taking place largely at sea, and even during periods of peace there was much piracy and many violent outbreaks between the trading communities. The wars were financially disastrous, with Venice severely debilitated and making several concessions in the end. However, Venice would take advantage of the weakness of its mainland rivals to redress its losses, while Genoa struggled much more with their accumulated debt.
