Overview[]

The Corsican Republic[]

In November 1755 Pasquale Paoli proclaimed Corsica a sovereign nation, the Corsican Republic, independent from the Republic of Genoa. He created the Corsican Constitution, which was the first constitution written in Italian under Enlightenment principles, including the first implementation of female suffrage, later revoked by the French when they took over the island in 1769. The republic created an administration, a justice system, and founded an army.

Pasquale Paoli[]

Filippo Antonio Pasquale Paoli (6 April 1725 – 5 February 1807) was a Corsican patriot and leader, the president of the Executive Council of the General Diet of the People of Corsica. Paoli designed and wrote the Constitution of the state. Paoli held his office by election and not by appointment. It made him commander-in-chief of the armed forces as well as chief magistrate. Following the French conquest of Corsica in 1768, Paoli oversaw the Corsican resistance. Following the defeat of Corsican forces at the Battle of Ponte Novu he was forced into exile in Britain where he was a celebrated figure. He returned after the French Revolution which he was initially supportive of. He later broke with the revolutionaries and helped to create the Anglo-Corsican Kingdom which lasted between 1794 and 1796. After the island was re-occupied by France he again went into exile in Britain where he died in 1807.

Dawn of Man[]

Benvinuta most honored of corsican patriots and leader of the people, Pasquale Paoli. Not only did you drive the Genoese from the island of Corsica, but you managed to re-organize the goverment, introduce many liberal and democratic reforms and create the first ever Corsican Constitution, which was written under the Enlightenment principles. With support from philosophers such as Rousseau and Voltaire, the Corsican Republic became an early symbol for liberty and forerunner of modern democracy. Though your title as President of the Executive Council of the General Diet of the People of Corsica was short-lived, you are to this day a symbol for Corsican independence.

Most idealistic President, Corsica once again requires the service of a skilled leader, one who can bring the republic back to the forefront of world affairs. Can you establish your nation through careful trade, or will you work to conquer your enemies through diplomacy? Can you build a civilization that will stand the test of time?

Introduction: "I welcome you to to the lands of the Corsicans. Are you seeking a future based on the principles of Enlightenment. If so, I am pleased to make you acquaintance. I the president of the Executive Council of the General Diet of the People of Corsica, Pasquale Paoli."

Introduction: "I have often seen rulers like you come; showing great promise of friendship and loyalty toward my people. But I, as leader of the Corsicans, will not be lulled into any deceit. You have been warned."

Defeat: "I have lived worthily, and left before me a nation of good works. I am content that my people will prevail in time over yours."
