Pietro III Candiano was the Doge of Venice from 942 until 959. He was the son of 
Pietro II Candiano.

History[edit]

In 948 he led a fleet of 33 galleys to punish the Dalmatian pirates - Narentines - for 
repeatedly raiding across the Adriatic Sea. After the military attempt failed, he tried 
again - but the result was a peace treaty that made the Most Serene Republic of 
Venice pay taxes to the Narentines for safe passage for the next 50 years, until Doge 
Pietro II Orseolo's actions. His dogaressa was Arcielda Candiano.[1]

His two sons were Doge Pietro IV Candiano (930 - 976) and Domenigo Candiano, 
Bishop of Torcello. His daughter Elena Candiano and her future husband Gerardo 
Guoro were the original persons upon whom the English dramatist William 
Shakespeare based his story Romeo and Juliet.[citation needed]
