Biography

Grimaldi becomes doge when Ferdinando Spinola renounced his position of doge. The election took place on January 26, 1773. The suppression of the Society of Jesus was imposed during his Dogate, to which the doge and a large part of the Genoese aristocracy were in favor. For this reason Pier Francesco Grimaldi delayed the execution of this order, in agreement with the Jesuit archbishop of Genoa. With pontifical permission he also restricted the right of immunity of churches for outlaws. The dogate ended on January 26, 1775, and Grimaldi continued to work for the Republic. He died in 1791.[1][2]

gollark: I don't think so.
gollark: How about "read file, parse/compile Lua source code and execute resulting function"? That seems clear.
gollark: That way programs can ship with builtin configuration but it's still editable.
gollark: You could have a comment which the program runner thing detects. Maybe as a fallback if there's no custom metadata?
