    Thanks, Brew! Next one is a relatively minor affair, which however held a prominent position in a country's national narrative:

    Absolutely correct, as usual! One small victory for German nationalism, one great triumph for the Confederation of the Rhine. The floor is yours!

    The picture is the same one as on the Wikepedia page for the battle, but the scsle armor and different helmets shown for rhe Austria forces would never have let me guess that battle was between 2 western European forces; I thought they would have been using same type of helmet and armor. I thought one side was from eastern Europe due to the different style of helmets.

    Battle of Queenstown Heights (1812)?
    Cause tomorrow is a brand-new day
    And tomorrow you'll be on your way
    Don't give a damn about what other people say
    Because tomorrow is a brand-new day
