The Republic of Ancona (Italian: Repubblica Anconitana) was formed on 19 November 1797 as a French client republic. It came about after a French victory at Ancona in February 1797.[1] It existed in the region of Marche, with capital Ancona. It was incorporated into the Roman Republic on 7 March 1798. It had a consul as its head.

Ancona is now a province of Italy, which is in central Italy on the Adriatic Sea.
