In the Middle Ages, the island was first a base for Saracen pirates, then it came under the rule of Pisa, and after the Battle of Meloria it came under Genoa. Although Capraia administratively belonged to Corsica, the island remained with Genoa after 1768 and did not become part of France.
After the unification of Italy (see Risorgimento) the island was part of the province of Genoa until November 15, 1925, only then did it become part of Tuscany.
