On September 26, 1715, the Grand Council elected him new doge of the Republic of Genoa, the ninety-eighth in biennial succession and the one hundred and forty-third in republican history. As doge he was also invested with the related biennial office of king of Corsica. Once the mandate ended on September 26, 1717, Lorenzo Centurione held other public offices. He died in Genoa around 1735.[1]
