The Venetian–Genoese Wars were a long-standing conflict between the Republic of Genoa and the Republic of Venice for dominance in the eastern Mediterranean Sea between 1256 and 1381. It occurred in four spurts of open warfare. The first three were primarily naval conflicts, fought in the Eastern Mediterranean and chiefly the Aegean Sea. The first, occurring between 1257 and 1270, demonstrated the overall superiority of Venice at sea, but could not halt the expansion of Genoese influence, especially in Byzantium. The second war, in 1294–1299, was indecisive, and the third war between 1350 and 1355 was won by Genoa. The fourth, occurring between 1378 and 1381 was a victory for Venice and was fought mostly in Italy.
