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.
