Battle context
The Second Battle of Boulou was a decisive engagement in the War of the Pyrenees, restoring French control over nearly all territory the Kingdom of Spain had seized in 1793. General of Division Jacques Dugommier led the Army of the Eastern Pyrenees against the joint Spanish-Portuguese Army of Catalonia under the Conde de la Unión, inflicting some 2,000 casualties on a force of roughly equal size. The victory reversed the trajectory of the Pyrenean front, undoing the Spanish gains of the previous year and placing French forces in a position of initiative along the eastern theater of the war.
