Prince de la Moskowa
(重定向自Duke of Elchingen)
The titles of Duc d'Elchingen and Prince de la Moskowa were created by Napoleon I, Emperor of the French, for the Marshal of France Michel Ney. Both were victory titles; Ney was created duc d'Elchingen in 1808, after the Battle of Elchingen, and prince de la Moskowa ("prince of the Moskva") in 1812, after the Battle of Borodino outside Moscow (named Bataille de la Moskova in French). In 1814, Ney became a peer of France. On his execution in 1815, the peerage was revoked, but it was restored in 1831.
