The Departmental Council of Corsica (French: Conseil départemental de Corse) was the deliberative assembly of the former French department of Corse (1790–1793, 1811–1976), on the island of Corsica.
History edit
In 1833, when the General Council was created, Corsica had only one department, since the merger of the two departments, Liamone and Golo in 1811.[1] On 1st January 1976, by application of the law of May 15, 1975, it was split into two departments: Haute-Corse and Corse-du-Sud, resulting in the dissolution of the single general council.
