Overview

Liguria Republic existed from 14 June 1797 to May 1800, From 24 June 1800 to June 1805 and from 28 April 1814 to December 1814. It used the same flag as Genoa Republic (white with red saint George cross) as it is quoted in the constitution of 26 June 1802 and in the laws of 28 July 1814, but it is not quoted in the Constitution of 2 December 1798 (but exist a quotation to "the old banner").
