[@josiahtrombley4090]

[@lorenzoperotti4813]

It's just like in terms of culture. The corsican language could be considered an Italian dialect, as the sardinian.

[@xenotypos]

​@@josiahtrombley4090 No it's not the same thing, Georgia is its own country and Georgian isn't even an indo-European language. It's not that surprising they were considered distinct. Back then Italy wasn't even considered a unified ethnicity, and many languages/dialects in Italy weren't even mutually intelligibles (at least according to youtuber Metatron, who's Italian). On the other hand, in 1769, southern France's main language (of the common people) was Occitan which isn't really farther to Corsican than most Italian dialects. If that cultural proximity with the "Italian area" or whatever is the main argument, then where is the limit ? Southern French were sometimes closer to northern Italians than southern Italians. No, the point is that, Corsica was french, still is today. The cultural proximity with France was as real as with southern Italy (northern Italy was probably closer I admit) so I think it's a really weak argument compared with nationality.

[@josiahtrombley4090]

@@xenotypos Georgia might be its own country now but before 1917 it wasn't. I was responding to claims that because Napoleon was born in French territory he was French. That argument would hold truer to a region of Russia that had been controlled by the Imperial Russian government for over a century. At the end of the day both men changed their names to fit in and historical actors noted their accents and foreignness at the time. Furthermore unless you only prescribe to Benedict Anderson's theory of natipnal-linguistic imagined communities then you would know that more than mere language and familiarity makes a nationality. As a last note: in the 18th century there was no singular "common language" of France, Brittany was recently subdued and even then had serious resistance to central government for example. To this day there are more than half a dozen different languages and that is after two centuries of efforts to weaken or destroy local languages in France.

[@xenotypos]

@@josiahtrombley4090 I understand what you're saying but: - The very fact that Corsica is still French and that most Corsicans feel French can't be overlooked. And those (which are far from the majority) that feel Corsican before being French, at the very least don't feel Italian at all. - Which leads to the other problem: The claim isn't even that Napoleon "isn't French but Corsican", it's "Napoleon is Italian", which makes the claim very different from "Stalin's Georgian". Once again, Corsica was never part of Italy and such an idea didn't even exist. Georgia on the other hand, not only existed once, but also exists nowadays. I mean, come on, while I admit there are some similarities, be honest and admit that there are also things that make the linje far more blurry in Napoleon's case. - "As a last note: in the 18th century there was no singular "common language" of France" Here I don't even know why you're saying that to me, it feels like you didn't even read the second half of my message in which I even mentioned why southern France was close to northern Italy in terms of culture and had Occitan as the most common dialect. So of course I'm aware France had strong regional differences (though related most of the time), that was even my own argument. Still, I think it's misleading to say that wasn't a common language, depending on what you mean (I may have misunderstood): the higher society sure all spoke the Parisian variety of french as a second or a first language. It's just that the common people spoke above all the local dialects yes. And apart from exceptions such as Brittany, Alsace or the Provencal, France was actually just split in two: the Oil dialects (including Parisian French) in the north, and Occitan in the south. The Oil language actually varied little from one region to another (it's easy to check nowadays). Occitan (and its varieties) was a bit farther though and may be considered another language completely, but it was still often intelligible. I went a bit off-topic here.
