==Carlo I (1886β1927)== Son of Paolo I and Pasqua Favale, born 1845. In the summer of 1900 the British naval vessel [[HMS Vulcan (1889)|HMS ''Vulcan'']] visited Tavolara, and the officers took a photograph of King Carlo and his family to hang in [[Queen Victoria]]'s collection of royal portraits in [[Buckingham Palace]].<ref>{{cite journal |year=1962 |title= Semana|journal=Semana |volume=60 |issue=1154β1166 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=14UcAQAAMAAJ }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |year=1976 |title=Forgotten Flags: Tavolara |journal=The Flag Bulletin |publisher=Flag Research Center |location=Winchester, Mass |volume=15-17 |page=131 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=mCIrAQAAIAAJ }}</ref> By 1904, however, Carlo was king in name only, having no ambition to rule. He is reported to have said, "I do not care to be a king. It is enough for me to make as fine lobster-pots as did my father." He was persuaded to reign, however, until his death, which was reported either Nov 6, 1927, at [[Olbia]], or Jan 31, 1928, at [[Ventimiglia]] on the Italian Riviera.<ref>{{cite journal |last=Hale |first=Walter |date=Nov 1904 |title=The Search for a Lost Republic |journal=Harper's Monthly Magazine |volume=CIX |issue=DCXLIX |pages=929β936 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=flsCAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA929 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=Tavolara's King Dies; Ruled Tiniest Realm; Charles Bartoleoni Was Monarch of Small Island Off Sardinia's Coast |work=New York Times |page=27 |date=February 1, 1928 |access-date=14 April 2009 |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1928/02/01/archives/tavolaras-king-dies-ruled-tiniest-realm-charles-bartoleoni-was.html }}</ref>
