The French conquest of Corsica was a successful expedition by French forces of the Kingdom of France under Comte de Vaux, against Corsican forces under Pasquale Paoli of the Corsican Republic. The expedition was launched in May 1768, in the aftermath of the Seven Years' War. A French expeditionary force was landed on the island of Corsica, then ruled by the Corsican Republic. Marching inland to overcome any Corsican opposition, the French force initially suffered an unexpected defeat at the Battle of Borgo. But a new commander, the Comte de Vaux, was appointed to lead the expedition, and decisively defeated the Corsican army at the Battle of Ponte Novu in 1769, effectively bringing an end to Corsican resistance.

Republik Genova sebelumnya telah menyerahkan kendali de jure atas Korsika kepada Prancis seperti yang diatur oleh pada tahun 1768. Awalnya Genova masih mengklaim pulau ini, tetapi semenjak tahun 1755 Korsika berhasil memperoleh kemerdekaannya dan merumuskan Konstitusi Korsika. Setelah Genova tidak lagi dapat merebut Korsika dengan kekuatan militer, mereka memutuskan untuk menjual hak mereka kepada Prancis. (in)
  • La conquista francese della Corsica ebbe luogo tra il 1768 e il 1769, quando la Repubblica Corsa fu occupata dalle forze francesi sotto il comando di Noël Jourda, Conte di Vaux. Al Trattato di Versailles del 1768 la Francia ricevette, come pegno dalla Repubblica di Genova, il diritto di occupare la Corsica. Genova rivendicava la proprietà dell'isola, anche se dal 1755 i Corsi avevano de facto raggiunto l'indipendenza e avevano promulgato una costituzione propria. Dopo aver abbandonato ogni speranza di recuperare la Corsica con la forza, la repubblica genovese scelse quindi di vendere i propri diritti sull'isola alla Francia, desiderosa di conquistare nuove terre dopo le perdite territoriali durante la Guerra dei Sette Anni.
