The Spanish Crown and Sardinia were definitively separated in 1720 with the transfer of the Island to the rule of the Savoy.
However, certain ties are still alive, both from a linguistic and cultural perspective, as well as a formal one.
Just look at this flag where the cross of St. George with its four Moorish heads is still today a quarter of the Aragonese flag.
