French Period (HND)

This module explores the history of the Maltese Islands during the brief but transformative French occupation from 1798 to 1800. It examines the political, social, economic, and religious developments of this period, including the impact of Napoleonic reforms and the resistance movements that led to the French blockade and capitulation. Learners will analyse key events and figures, assess the significance of the occupation in Malta’s historical trajectory, and develop the skills to communicate this complex period accurately and confidently in guiding contexts.
