The Dukedom of Ravenna is a title in the Peerage of Latium, and the current primary title of the House of Gentilis-Ravenna, a cadet line of the House of Gentry. It was created in 1911 by Emperor John XIII for his nephew Prince Albert of Ghant.
The title has been created on two previous occasions. The first creation was in 1588 when Prince Constantine was made Duke. The second creation was, in 1775, to Prince Alexius, Duke of Ravenna. The second creation became extinct in 1911 after the death of Alexander Gentilis, Duke of Ravenna. The third creation was granted to Prince Albert of Ghant, Duke of Ravenna after his marriage to Princess Anna of Ravenna, herself the sole surviving child of the last Duke of the second creation.
The heir apparent to the Dukedom of Ravenna is Robert Gentilius Ravenna; his heir presumptive is Victor Ravenna.
History and descent
The third creation of the Dukedom of Ravenna was in 1911 to Prince Albert of Ghant. Albert was the eldest child of Prince Albert of Ghant and Princess Silivia of Latium, making him the grandson of Emperor Theophylactus I Augustus. In 1880, Albert's father, Prince Albert of Ghant, was widely considered by many at Latin court to be in line for a peerage due to his marriage to Princess Silvia of Latium. No peerage was granted until the reign of Emperor John XIII, though there was added speculation that Albert would be granted his own peerage after it was announced he was engaged to Princess Anna of Ravenna, herself a daughter of Prince Alexius, Duke of Ravenna.
As the second creation of the Dukedom of Ravenna became extinct in 1911 upon the death of Prince Alexius, Duke of Ravenna, his daughter Anna – wife of Albert of Ghant – was ineligible to inherit due to male-only succession. On 19 November 1911, Albert was created Duke of Ravenna to allow descendants of the previous dukes to carry on the line. As first duke, Albert was also awarded lands located in Ravenna. Albert was Duke of Ravenna until his murder during the April coup in 1945.
He was succeeded by his eldest son, Samuel, who assumed the family name Gentillis Ravenna ("Gentry-Ravenna") to commemorate the families of each parent. Samuel was duke from 1945 until his own death in 1986. Samuel lacked any male heir throughout his entire tenure as duke, where his nephew Victor was heir presumptive since Samuel's succession.
Victor Gentilius Ravenna became the third duke on 2 December 1986. Victor's eldest child, Michael Gentilius Ravenna is the heir apparent and expected fourth duke. Michael's heir presumptive is his eldest son, Victor Ravenna, the expected fifth duke.
As male-line descendants of Emperor Nathan II of Ghant, the current Duke and his descendants are entitled to the rights and privileges as members of the House of Gentry. While the current line does not utilize it's style as Ghantish Princes of the Blood in Latium, all children and grandchildren of the current duke are entitled to use such a title in line with the house law of the House of Gentry. Since 1997, paternal grandchildren of Victor Gentilius Ravenna, Duke of Ravenna have since assumed "Ravenna" as a surname.
