Everything about Treaty Of Paris 1796 totally explained
The
Treaty of Paris of
May 15 1796 was a
treaty between the French Republic and the
Kingdom of Piedmont-Sardinia during the
War of the First Coalition.
After four years of fighting, the French under Bonaparte had finally beaten the Piedmontese army in the
Battle of Montenotte, and on April 21 1796 in the
Battle of Mondovi. This forced King
Victor Amadeus III of Sardinia to sign an armistice at
Cherasco one week later, abandoning the
First Coalition against the French Republic.
In the following treaty King Victor Amadeus III recognized the French Republic, ceded the
original Duchy of Savoy and the
County of Nice to France and gave the French Army free passage through his territory towards the rest of Italy.
The King died a few months after signing the treaty.
The French interest in Savoy had already been demonstrated in 1792 when the revolutionaries had annexed these lands as the 84th French Departement under the name
Mont-Blanc. This had provoced the war with Piedmont-Sardinia.
Piedmont-Sardinia never accepted these losses and in the
Treaty of Paris (1814) they retrieved Savoy, and one year later in the
Treaty of Paris (1815), the rest of these territories.
