doge
Doge is a term primarily used in reference to two contexts. 1) It is the title given to the elected chief of state in several Italian republics during the medieval and renaissance periods, particularly the Republic of Venice and the Republic of Genoa. 2) In modern internet culture, it refers to an Internet meme that became popular in 2013, which typically consists of a picture of a Shiba Inu dog accompanied by multicolored text in comic sans font. The text, representing a kind of internal monologue, is deliberately written in broken English, typified by its characteristic phrases "such wow" and "much X". The term has also been associated with Dogecoin, a type of digital currency or cryptocurrency named after the meme.

Doge
Doge is a Venetian word that descends from the Latin dux, meaning "leader", especially in a military context. The wife of a Doge is styled a Dogaressa. The title of Doge was used for the elected chief of state in a number of Italian "crowned republics". The two best known such republics were Venice and Genoa, which rivalled each other, and the other regional great powers, by building their historical city-states into maritime, commercial, and territorial mini-empires. Other Italian republics to have Doges were Amalfi and the small town of Senarica. In several writings of Theodor Herzl, founder of Zionism, he proposed that the future Jewish State take the title of "Doge" for its Head of State - but this was not taken up by the actual Israel.
Chambers 20th Century Dictionary
Doge
dōj, n. formerly the chief-magistrate in Venice and Genoa.—ns. Dogaress′a, the wife of a doge; Dog′ate, Doge′ate, Doge′ship. [It., prov. for duce = Eng. duke—L. dux, a leader—ducĕre, to lead.]
The Nuttall Encyclopedia
Doge
the name of the chief magistrate of Venice and Genoa, elected at first annually and then for life in Venice, with, in course of time, powers more and more limited, and at length little more than a figure-head; the office ceased with the fall of the republic in 1797, as it did in Genoa in 1804.
