Juanne Maria Angioy
Notwithstanding the maladministration, the sparse population and all the impediments which stand in the way of agricultural, trade and industrial development, Sardinia is well provided with everything necessary for the nourishment and sustenance of its own inhabitants. If Sardinia, even in a state of neglect, without a government and industry of its own, and after all these centuries of misfortunes, has still so many resources, one may conclude that, if it were well managed, it would be one of the most prosperous states of Europe, and that the ancients were not wrong to paint it as a country renowned for its size, for its population, and for the copiousness of its manifacture.
— Memoirs, 1799[1][2]
Giovanni Maria Angioy (pronounced[dʒoˈvannimaˈriːaanˈdʒɔi]; Sardinian: Juanne Maria Angioy[juˈanːɛmaˈɾi.aanˈdʒo.i]; 21 October 1751, Bono – 23 February 1808, Paris) was a Sardinian politician and patriot and is considered to be a national hero by Sardinian nationalists. Although best known for his political activities, Angioy was a university lecturer, a judge for the Reale Udienza, an entrepreneur and a banker.
From 1794 to 1796, Angioy contributed in shaping and guiding the mass revolt known as "Sardinian Vespers", which was fought to end the feudal privileges and laws that still existed on the island of Sardinia, and to declare the island to be a republic.[3] In 1796, due to persecution by the ruling House of Savoy, he had to escape from Sardinia. Angioy found refuge in France, where he sought support for a French annexation of the island.[4] He died, unsuccessful,[4] in Paris at the age of fifty-six.
^«Risulta che essa [la Sardegna] non-sia mai stata indipendente, e che è stata sempre oppressa, travagliata e devastata nelle guerre da Cartaginesi e da Romani, quindi da Goti, Visigoti, Vandali, Saraceni, Pisani, Genovesi, Aragonesi e Piemontesi, avendo inoltre subito tre epidemie di peste a causa dell'inadeguatezza del governo. La Sardegna quale essa è al giorno d'oggi e dopo ventiquattro secoli di disastri, vessazioni e del governo più sbagliato, ha ancora cinquecentomila abitanti, ossia grosso modo lo stesso numero che risiede nella Repubblica Ligure. Malgrado la cattiva amministrazione, l'insufficienza della popolazione e tutti gli intralci che ostacolano l'agricoltura, il commercio e l'industria, la Sardegna abbonda di tutto ciò che è necessario per il nutrimento e la sussistenza dei suoi abitanti, e inoltre fornisce agli stranieri grano, orzo, fave, ceci, vino, olio, tabacco, soda, bestiame, formaggio, limoni, sale, tonno e corallo... Se la Sardegna in uno stato di languore, senza governo, senza industria, dopo diversi secoli di disastri, possiede così grandi risorse, bisogna concludere che ben amministrata sarebbe uno degli stati più ricchi d'Europa, e che gli antichi non-hanno avuto torto a rappresentarcela come un paese celebre per la sua grandezza, per la sua popolazione e per l'abbondanza della sua produzione».
