Who was Giovanni Borgia, 2nd Duke of Gandia?
Giovanni Borgia, II Duke of Gandía was a member of the House of Borgia and the son of Pope Alexander VI, Rodrigo Borgia. He was the brother of Cesare, Gioffre, and Lucrezia Borgia. Giovanni, commonly known as Juan, was the eldest of the Pope's four children by Vannozza dei Cattanei. Due to the contents of a number of papal bulls issued after his murder, it is unclear whether Giovanni was born in 1476 or 1477, but it is long thought by historians that he was the eldest son, and not Cesare.
