The former department of Corse (20) was divided on 1 January 1976
into Corse-du-Sud (South Corsica) and
Haute-Corse (Upper Corsica). The two
departments already existed in 1793-1811, as Liamone and Golo (two rivers' names), respectively.
The Collectivity of Corsica was established on 1 January 2018 after the merger of the former Territorial Collectivity of Corsica with the Departemental Councils of Haute-Corse and Corse-du-Sud.
Ivan Sache,1 January 2018
The departments in Corsica do not exist any more as local subdivisions with elected bodies since 1 January 2018 but do exist only as local levels of State administration. Both departmental councils had their own logos before 2018, but I have never observed any flag of each of them, and the corsican flag was widely in use in Haute-Corse and in Corse du Sud.

The Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCI) of Ajaccio and Corse-du-Sud, created by decree on August 4, 1899, represented the interests of commerce, industry and services in the department. On January 1, 2020, it merged with the CCI of Haute-Corse to form the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Corsica, a regional consular chamber.
The flag of CCI Ajaccio and Corse du Sud, as observed in Ajaccio on the seat of the CCI, was white with the logo: photo.
