The Colonna were Counts of Corsica in the Xth century and their title was given by the Pope. Are the Colonna today still pretending a little connected with Corsica?
In 1736 there was a Kingdom of Corsica and the King was the German aristocrat Theodor von Neudoff.
At the end if the XVIIIth century the Corsican national hero Pasquale Paoli tried to establish an independent state with the help of the English.
Today the Corsican people try to protect its identity and to get a larger autonomy (some want independence). Rediscovering its royalist tradition ("opposed to the "republican values" underlined by French authorities) would certainly help.
