Corsica is an island in the Mediterranean Sea. It is located west of Italy. At one point it was Italian under the state of Genoa. When the Corsicans attempted to rebel in the late 1700s, Genoa secretly sold it to France. It did manage to declare independence and itself a Republic, only to lose that position. Due to a lack of fertile land and resources, it culd not manage well on its own. No it is part of France. It is also the birthplace of Napoleon Bonaparte I.
