  • The French Revolutionary Wars continued from 1799 with the French fighting the forces of the Second Coalition. Napoleon Bonaparte had returned from Egypt and taken control of the French government. He prepared a new campaign, sending Moreau to the Rhine frontier and personally going to take command in the Alps, where French forces had been driven almost out of Italy in 1799. At the start of the campaigning season of 1800, the Austrians had strong armies North and South of the Alps * about 120,000 men in the Black Forest under Pál Kray (defending the direct (Rhine – Danube) route from France to Vienna * about 100,000 men in Northern Italy under Michael von Melas defending the Austrian possessions in Northern Italy, and the Po valley, which Napoleon had used as a backdoor to Vienna in his previous Italian campaigns The French had * about 120,000 men under Moreau facing Kray * about 40,000 men under André Masséna holding Genoa and preventing invasion of Southern France from Italy * about 50,000 men under Berthier forming the Army of the Reserve and centred on Dijon Both the Austrians and the French decided to make their main effort in Italy. (Bonaparte would have preferred the main attack to be on Kray by a flanking move through Northern Switzerland, but the working relationship with Moreau was poor).
