Born Rainier-Louis-Henri-Maxence-Bertrand de Grimaldi, on 31 May 1923, Rainier III {no relation to Mount Rainier, which George Vancouver sighted on 08 May 1792 and named for fellow navigator Peter Rainier} was responsible for Monaco's 1962 constitution, which ended autocratic rule by creating a National Council of eighteen elected members.
She was the beloved of the Italian poet Petrarch [20 Jul 1304 – 19 Jul 1374] and the subject of his love lyrics, written over a period of about 20 years, most of which were included in his Canzoniere, or Rime.
Laura has traditionally been identified as Laura de Noves of Avignon (now in France), a married woman and a mother; but since Petrarch gives no clues as to who she was, several other Lauras have also been suggested, and some critics believe there was no actual Laura at all.
