spittle Posted January 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Corsica was Italian??? the Corsicans and sicilians seem to share many traditions. Cockney Rhyming slang was originally a code to confuse the police. the police must have been fairly dumb not to figure it out instantly.

docoflove1974 Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Corsica was Italian???the Corsicans and sicilians seem to share many traditions. If I recall correctly, Corsica was under the jurisdiction of the Genovese city-state for many years, until they lost it to France. For this reason the Italians who are still on the island are of Genovese-descent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
