Tuscan Republic (19th century)
The Tuscan Republic was a short-lived state declared on February 18, 1849, after Grand Duke Leopold II fled, leading to the suspension of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany.[1] The Republic ended and the Grand Duchy was reinstated on April 12 that year when the municipal council, fearing Austrian invasion, usurped the powers of the assembly and invited the Grand Duke to return.

gollark: ... why? Nobody has asked for this so it makes you seem like an advertising bot.
gollark: That's actually pretty good because it's not copyable and impossible to fake.
gollark: I have one which uses asymmetric cryptography stuff - private key on the disk/card, public key stored... publicly - which means it doesn't need a server and can just pull off HTTP, but this is also neat.
