Regno di Napoli Prima Brigata

The Primabrigata of the Regno di Napoli (Kingdom of Naples) in 1814 was a key infantry formation in the army of Joachim Murat during the final phase of the Napoleonic Wars.

It typically consisted of several line infantry regiments organized for field operations, reflecting French military structure and tactics (since Murat was a marshal of Napoleon Bonaparte). The brigade was part of Murat’s efforts to modernize and strengthen the Neapolitan army, especially as he shifted alliances in 1814 to preserve his throne.

In short, the Prima Brigata was a frontline combat unit made up of trained infantry, playing a role in the Kingdom of Naples military campaigns during the turbulent end of the Napoleonic era.
