War in Historiography

In the historiography of European warfare, historians almost always described this conflict "in dismissive or derisive terms [as] the apotheosis (or perhaps caricature) of old regime warfare," despite its grand locution, The War of the Bavarian Succession.^[1] This was the last European war in which armies maneuvered sedately at a distance while diplomats hustled between capitals to resolve the their Majesties' issues. Given the length of time—six months—the cost in life and treasure was high. In light of the scale of warfare experienced in Europe less than a generation later in the French Revolutionary Wars, and shortly after, in the Napoleonic Wars, though, this six-month engagement seems mild.^[2] Yet, while historians often dismissed it as the last of the archaic style of ancién regime warfare, elements of the war foreshadowed conflicts to come: the sheer sizes of the armies deployed reflected the regimes' emerging abilities and willingness to conscript, train, equip and field larger armies than had been done in previous generations.^[3]

It also reflected a new role in military spending. Habsburg state military expenditure jumped in 1779 from 19,692,467 Reichsthaler to 64,989,311 the following year,^[4] almost a 76 percent increase. After the Seven Years War, the Habsburg military also shrank, from 201,311 in 1761 to 163,613 in 1775. In preparing for a second summer's campaign, Joseph's army grew from the 195,108 effectives of the summer 1778 to 308,555 in Spring 1779.^[5] Habsburg military strength never dropped below 200,000 effectives between 1779 and 1792, and several times surged above 300,000, responding to needs on the borders with the Ottoman Empire or the revolt in the Austrian Netherlands, The military also underwent a massive organizational overhaul.^[6]
