Also known as field corps, military corps
Corps (; plural corps ; from French , from the Latin "body") is a term used for several different kinds of organization. A military innovation by Napoleon, the formation was formally introduced March 1, 1800, when Napoleon ordered General Jean Victor Marie Moreau to divide his command into four corps. Before it came into force in 1800, the idea of corps was already in its infancy (for example, Jourdan's Army of Sambre and Meuse in 1795 was divided into 3 corps), but it could not take a definite form due to the relatively small size of the individual armies. Only Moreau granted the corps legal
A corps is an organizational unit that was popularized as a military innovation by Napoleon, who formally introduced it in 1800 as a way to divide large armies into smaller, more manageable formations. The term comes from French and Latin words meaning "body," and while the concept existed in earlier armies, it only became a standard military structure once armies grew large enough to require such division.
