Grands Corps De L'État
The ''grands corps de l'État'' (; English: Grand Corps of the French State) are a feature of the French state as envisaged in the reforms of Jean-Baptiste Colbert. Some of these ''grands corps'' date back to the reign of Louis XV, in the 18th century, but most originated or were given their modern form during the reign of Napoleon. The exact list of ''grands corps de l'État'' is debatable, mainly because there is disagreement about whether a particular ''corps'' is ''grand'' enough to be counted. However, ''Who's Who in France'' gives the following list: the ingénieurs des mines, the ingénieurs des ponts, the administrateurs de l'INSEE, the ingénieurs de l'armement, the conseillers d'État, the Cour des comptes and the inspecteurs des finances.
