He began his courses of honor In greater advice, where he was elected for five consecutive years. Note how, in the documents between 1264 and 1268, it is always mentioned as the son of John, a sign that he was still at the beginning of his political career; He had to have come out of his father’s shadow in 1268-69, when he began to be indicated simply with his name or with the falling nickname (which later became Calvo). After a period of silence, he returned to being mentioned in 1274 when he became one of the three Castellani di Corone and Modone, a prestigious assignment in the field of Venetian Romania. Even more important was the mandate taken in 1276, that of Bailo di Negroponte.        (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4In the same year he returned to Venice to be called to hold the podesteria di Montona in Istria, another delicate task since the belligerent region had recently been submissive. Indeed, the war, fomented by the Count of Gorizia and the patriarch of Aquileia, was not yet over and it was probably here that Dandolo made his first military experiences. Returning to the lagoon in 1278, he was called to be part of a mission at Charles I d’Angi\u00f2. When, in 1280, the father was elected doge, his career suffered acceleration. In fact, Duke (or Governor) of Crete was elected, full of considerable importance since the island covers great strategic importance in the context of possessions in the East. Once the mandate is concluded successfully, in 1281 he returned home where he resumed to be part of the major advice for two consecutive years. In 1283 he returned to Istria as Podest\u00e0 di Pirano (the first after the annexation of the city), where he took care of a situation similar to that of Montona, with the war still in progress. After a pause of a few years, he returned to the way in 1291, under the Dogato of Pietro Gragenigo, being appointed captain of the infantry in the conflict against Padua. The following year he was appointed Duke of Crete for the second time, a charge that has become even more demanding after the fall of San Giovanni d’Acri; The mandate, which was prolonged until 1296, became even more heavy with the outbreak of the war with Genoa. It is not very plausible that in 1293, as the historiographic tradition would like, he had been elected prosecutor of San Marco, given that in that year he was still in Crete.        (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Back in Venice, he took part directly to the conflict with Genoa as a admiral at the head of a fleet. Leaving the Adriatic, he led his ships up to Sicily where he rejected a Genoese team. It was not a decisive event, but contributed equally to lifting the morale of the Venetians. It was perhaps this victory that pushed the government to appoint him Captain General. In 1298, when the Genoese ships led by Lamba Doria entered the Adriatic, the opportunity was looming for the decisive clash and the Dandolo a Gli met with its fleet. From the sources, although inaccurate and discordant, we know that both sides were strong and well equipped and that the Venetian fleet was slightly stronger (about ninety ships against the eighty of the Genoese). On the evening of September 7, while they stopped in front of the island of Curzola, the Genoese were reached by the Venetians; The battle began the next morning. What is remembered as the greatest naval clash between the two maritime powers ended with a clear Genoese victory. Many Venetians perished and as many were imprisoned; Among these Marco Polo who, just as he was in prison, dictated the well -known Million . As for Dandolo, the sources diverge on his fate. It probably did not die in the clash, but, taken by the Genoese, it survived a few more days, then pushing for the wounds or fever. According to an unlikely tradition, inspired by the events of Catone the Uticsenan, he committed suicide, slamming his head against the master tree of the Genoese ship in which he was led prisoner.
