Aftermath

The Austrians mistreated many of the inhabitants of Genoa, causing deep resentment. Following the departure of large numbers of the Austrians for an Allied invasion of France, the city rose on 7 December 1746, driving out the remainder of the garrison. An attempt to retake the city the following year failed.
