Federico di Pagana was the 8th Lifetime Doge of the Republic of Genoa. He was chosen as doge after Nicolò Guarco was forced out of office on 7 April 1383.
Pagana came from the region of Rapallo on the Genoese Riviera, so it remains unclear why he was chosen as doge. However, soon after his appointment, Leonardo Montaldo maneuvered to have the election canceled and to be picked instead as the new doge.
After this episode, Federico di Pagana disappeared from the forefront of Genoese politics.
