👉 Corsica Libera in the context of 2017 Corsican territorial election

The 2017 Corsican territorial elections were held on 3 and 10 December 2017 to elect 63 members of the Corsican Assembly, who in turn determined the composition of the Executive Council of Corsica. The election was held only two years after the 2015 territorial elections, and were called as a result of the planned creation of a single collectivity within Corsica resulting from the mergers of two departments (Haute-Corse and Corse-du-Sud), and the existing territorial collectivity of Corsica.

The nationalist alliance Pè a Corsica between autonomist Femu a Corsica and separatist Corsica Libera won an outright majority of seats in the assembly under the list led by Gilles Simeoni.

Corsica Libera in the context of Femu a Corsica

Femu a Corsica (Corsican pronunciation: [ˈfɛmu a ˈkorsiɡa]; lit. 'Let's Do Corsica' or 'Let us make Corsica') is a Corsican autonomist political party. It was formed for the first time prior to the 2010 French regional elections in the form of a political coalition. The coalition members, Inseme per a Corsica, the Party of the Corsican Nation (PNC) and Chjama Naziunale, merged during the founding congress of the party in Corte on 15 October 2017. The PUDEMU (Pulitica è Demucrazia in Muvimentu) movement also merged into the new party. The PNC was later re-established in 2019. The leader of the party is Gilles Simeoni.

Following the victory of the Pè a Corsica list in the territorial elections of 2017, of which Femu a Corsica was a member alongside Corsica Libera, the party won 28 of the 63 seats in the Corsican Assembly. Gilles Simeoni was reappointed as President of the Executive Council of Corsica, which he has held since 2015. The party won 32 seats in the 2021 elections after the Pè a Corsica coalition split up.
