The Battle of Lepanto was a decisive victory for the Holy League, and marked the reestablishment of the Christian Empire in the Levant. Don Juan and Doria led the battle to retake Tunis from the Ottomans in 1573. The Ottomans retook Tunis in 1574 and remained in power there. In 1576, Don Juan was appointed Governor General over the Hapsburg Netherlands. He led the capture of the city of Namur in 1577, and defeated the Protestants in the Battle of Gembloux in 1578. After his victories, he was defeated at Rijmenam near present day Brussels. After this defeat his health began to deteriorate and he succumbed to a fever, dying on Sunday, October 1, 1578. He was 31 years old. Doria went on to lead expeditions against the Barbary States in 1601. He also served as Commander of the Order of Santiago, the Marquis of Tursi, and Prince of Melfi. Venier was elected Doge of Venice in 1577, at the age of 81. He died on March 3, 1578. His remains now rest at the Basilica di San Giovanni e Paulo.
