The Savoyard's States (French: Etats de Savoie), also know as States of the House of Savoy and simplified in Savoy, was a unified group of states in Western Europe. Their history began with the creation of the County of Savoy in 1003 and end with the transformation of these states in the Kingdom of Italy in 1861.
Today, the territory of the ancient Kingdom of Sardinia is divided between France and Italy.
