Years: 1799 - 1800

The Italian and Swiss expeditions of 1799 and 1800 are undertaken by a combined Austro-Russian army under overall command of the Russian General Alexander Suvorov against French forces in Piedmont, Lombardy and Switzerland as part of the Italian campaigns of the French Revolutionary Wars in general and the War of the Second Coalition in particular.

“History isn't about dates and places and wars. It's about the people who fill the spaces between them.”
