The Army of the Alps Arm e des Alpes was one of the French Revolutionary armies . It existed from 1792 97 and from July to August 1799, and the name was also used on and off right up until 1939 for France s army on its border with Italy. 1792 7 The Arm e des Alpes was created by a decree of the French Convention on 1 October 1792 which divided the arm e du Midi into the arm e des Alpes and arm e des Pyr n es , and on 1 November the following year it was itself divided into the arm e de Savoie and arm e d Italie by a conseil ex cutif decree. Following the decrees of 27 29 November 1793 which brought Duchy of Savoy Savoy back into the First French Republic France under the name of the d partement of Le Mont Blanc , the arm e de Savoie was renamed the arm e des Alpes, before having a camp before Lyon split off from it between 8 August and 29 October 1793. The 1793 Arm e des Alpes was finally suppressed by a decree of 21 August 1797 21 fructidor year V , put into effect on 13 September, with its men and theatre transferred to the arm e d Italie 1799 Created on 27 July 1799, this incarnation of the Arm e des Alpes only lasted until 29 August 1799, when it was merged into the arm e d Italie.
