	Battle of Jena-Auerstedt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The twin battles of Jena and Auerstedt (older name: Auerstädt) were fought on October 14, 1806 on the plateau west of the river Saale in today's Germany, between the forces of Napoleon I of France and Frederick William III of Prussia.
		Nevertheless, it was a fierce battle, and Napoleon mistakenly believed that he had faced the main body of the Prussian army.
		Hegel considered this battle to be "the end of the history", in terms of evolution of human societies towards what we would call the "liberal democracy".
