Chronology

Interactive Chronologies with maps are available in the section Changes Navigation

  • January 726: The first Moorish raids on Corsica began around 713-719 from the Balearic Islands to the west. Acting as the protector of the Catholic Church and its faithful, Liutprand subjected the island to Lombard government (c. 725), though it was nominally under Byzantine authority. Corsica remained with the Lombard kingdom even after the Frankish conquest, by which time Lombard landholders and churches had established a significant presence on the island.
