The Army of the Principality of Catalonia (Catalan: Exèrcit del Principat de Catalunya) was the army raised by the Junta de Braços of Catalonia (assembly of representatives of the Catalan Courts without the king) on 9 July 1713 after the Peace of Utrecht and the withdrawal of the army of the Holy Roman Empire by the L'Hospitalet Agreement. The army was made up of 10,000 infantry, 1,600 cavalry and 1,000 naval troops. It is not known how many men formed the artillery unit but it did not exceed 700. In total, the army contained 13,000 regular troops.
On 9 July 1713 the Principality of Catalonia declared war on the Kingdom of France and the Duke of Anjou (Philip V of Spain), since the Catalan constitutions of 1706 did not recognize him as the legitimate king of the Monarchy of Spain. The next day, it published a ban to remove troops for the Army of Catalonia, the first units being the Regiment of the Deputation of the General of Catalonia and the Regiment of the City of Barcelona. For the position of general commander of the Army, they appointed Lieutenant Marshal Antoni de Villarroel i Peláez on 10 July. The artillery and the Cavalry Regiment of the Faith were financed by the merchant Amador Dalmau and Colom, as well as two ships for the Navy.
