Шаблон:Infobox ship imageШаблон:Infobox ship careerШаблон:Infobox ship careerШаблон:Infobox ship characteristicsSouverain was a 74-gun ship of the line of the French Navy, lead ship of her class.
She took part in the Battle of the Chesapeake, in 1781. In 1792, she was renamed Peuple Souverain ("Sovereign People").
In 1798, she took part in the battle of the Nile. A shot from Шаблон:HMS (at the rear of the British line) cut her cable and she drifted out of position,[1] later in the battle being captured by the British.[2]
She was subsequently recommissioned in the Royal Navy as HMS Guerrier, but was in too bad a shape to serve in the high sea, so she was used as a guard ship. She was broken up in 1810.[3]
