Régiment Royal Louis (original) (raw)

The Régiment Royal Louis (English: Literally: Regiment Royal Louis, Anglised: Royal Louis Regiment) was a line infantry regiment of the Armée des Émigrés, the counter-revolutionary forces loyal to King of France Louis XVI. Raised in Toulon, the regiment would be thrown into the siege of that city immediately, and quickly became battle hardened. After the evacuation from Toulon, part of the regiment would be involved in the Invasion of Corsica, but disbanded in December 1794 following a reorganisation of the émigré troops.
