Corsican Nationalist Movement

The Corsican Nationalist Movement is a political and social effort seeking greater autonomy or independence for Corsica, an island in the Mediterranean belonged to France. Its advocates emphasize preserving Corsican culture, language, and identity, and some push for full independence. The movement includes a range of groups with varying goals, from cultural recognition to political sovereignty. While many support peaceful activism and political dialogue, some factions have historically engaged in militant activity. Overall, it reflects Corsicans’ desire to have more control over their land, resources, and cultural heritage.
