    He probably was the fourth son of the 22nd doge, Pietro IV Candiano. He was elected by the popular assembly in September 978 CE. This after having to flee to Saxony because of the revolt against his father. His predecessor Pietro I Orseolo had left Venice to become a monk. He voluntarily abdicated after serving as Doge for 14 months.
    Relationships with the empire of the West

    At times, relationship between Venice and Western Empire was rocky because, in 976 CE, Venetian citizens revolted and killed Doge Peter IV Candiano. Granted, he was a despotic leader, but the Western Emperor, Otto II, supported him and he was related by his second marriage to both Otto II's family and that of the King of Italy.
