The Savoyard state comprised the states ruled by the counts and dukes of Savoy from the Middle Ages to the formation of the Kingdom of Italy. Although it was an example of composite monarchy,[1][2] it is a term applied to the polity by historians and was not in contemporary use. At the end of the 17th century, its population was about 1.4 million.[3][4][5]
