Flag of Corsica - Symbol of Corsican Identity and Autonomy #1860374 (License: Personal Use)

The flag of Corsica consists of a white background with a bold blue cross extending to the edges, and in the upper left canton, a black silhouette of a blindfolded Moor’s head wearing a white bandana and earring-symbolizing resistance and identity. Adopted officially in 1980, it draws from medieval heraldic traditions and represents Corsican nationalism and cultural autonomy within France. The Moor’s head motif has roots in the 13th-century Aragonese rule and was later revived during the 18th-century independence movement led by Pasquale Paoli.
