Corsica - "the most beautiful"...
Major celebrity not only Corsica, but also in all France
The flag of Corsica depicts the head of the moor. Why it became the emblem of the island of beauty? Most often the answer to this question is a legend that says that in the era of the Saracens brave warriors from Corsica is usually killed their enemies, cut off their heads and put them on spikes to intimidate future conquerors. A historical hypothesis seeming more plausible, suggests that the head of the moor appeared on the flag of the island in the XVI century, when the geographical map of the possessions of king Philip II of Spain Corsica did not have an official emblem, so it was decided to assign the head of the moor because of its proximity to Sardinia, on whose flag is shown as many as four moor heads.
