In Napoleon's first campaign of 1796-1797, France defeated both the Kingdom of Savoy and that of Austrian-Hungary to bring the states of Italy under French control. In 1799, with the formation of the 2nd Coalition against France, a Russo-Austrian army led by Russian hero Marshal Alexander Suvorov drove the French Army of Italy into the fortifications of Genoa and into the far southwest corner of Italy. In 1800, the newly created French Army of the Reserve, led by Napoleon, initiated his second Italian offensive leading to the defeat of the Austrian army at the famous Battle of Marengo.
