Premier amalgams

The Premier amalgame ( first amalgamation - also known as “Première reorganization” or “Première formation” [first formation]) in 1793 was the biggest change in the French army since the establishment of standing regiments .

Fusilier of a 1st battalion of the 1st or 2nd demi-brigade

At the suggestion of Edmond Louis Alexis Dubois-Crancé of January 23, 1793, the National Convention ordered by decree of February 26 and August 12 to replace the term “ regiment ” with “demi-brigade” (half-brigade) .

In the young French Republic, two different armies existed after the Levée en masse . First the standing army of the former royal army and then the numerous volunteer battalions (Bataillons de volontaires nationaux), which were completely without training.

Article 2 of the decree of February 21, 1793 provided:

“Each half-brigade will consist of a battalion from a formerly known “ regiments de ligne ”and two battalions of volunteers. The 1st battalion will then [e.g.] be called 1 ^er  bataillon du 42 ^e régiment d'infanterie (ci-devant Limousin). "

In February 1793 the French army consisted of 200,000 men, in July of 500,000 men, in September of 732,000 men and in December of 804,000 men - divided into 15 armies.

Initially there were two types of troop bodies:

• The battalions , which were formed from innumerable volunteers and which the officers chose from among themselves
• the royal army, made up of regiments with only a reduced number of men and officers, since a not inconsiderable number of soldiers had deserted - on the one hand to simply end their service and on the other hand to join the army of the Comte d'Artois émigrés . (Such as the Régiment Royal-Allemand cavalerie , which declared its oath of allegiance to be over after the death of the king and left the army almost completely.) At that time, a line regiment consisted on average of only 2 battalions with a total of 1029 men.

The Swiss regiments had also been dismissed in accordance with their surrenders and returned home.

The purpose of this amalgamation was to give the enthusiastic, untrained and in places indiscipline and difficult to lead volunteers a framework of experienced and level-headed soldiers in order to strengthen the fighting strength of the individual units.

The decree was supposed to be implemented with the order of January 10, 1794, but was still not fully completed two years later.

The 198 battalions of the royal army were affected, which were to form 198 "Demi-brigades de ligne" with 396 volunteer battalions. In addition there were the former 15 hunter battalions, which were combined with the "Corps francs à pied" and the associations of the "Infanterie des légions" to 15 "Demi-brigades d'infanterie légère" (half-brigades of light infantry). The number was to be increased to 254 "Demi-brigades d'infanterie de ligne" and 42 "Demi-brigades d'infanterie légère", but this was not achieved. Between 1793 and 1796 only 209 demi-brigades could be erected. Seven of the light infantry could not be deployed, bringing the total to 35.

Second amalgamation (Deuxième amalgame)

The second amalgamation from January 8, 1796 only consisted of renaming the previous “Demi-brigades de bataille” to “Demi-brigades d'infanterie” and giving it a new number. The previous names of the individual battalions were dropped; they were now only referred to as 1st, 2nd and 3rd battalions. When it was renamed “… régiment d'infanterie” in 1803, the numbers of the respective “Demi-brigade d'infanterie” were adopted for the sake of simplicity, thus interrupting the actual line of tradition, which was later accepted.
