	Constantine the Great
		Proceeding to Milan (end of 312, or beginning of 313) he met his colleague the Augustus Licinius, married his sister to him, secured his protection for the Christians in the East, and promised him support against Maximinus Daia.
		But Licinius was able to recover himself, and the battle fought between the two rivals at Castra Jarba (November, 314) left the two armies in such a position that both parties thought it best to make peace.
		He quarrelled with his colleague Licinius about their religious policy, and in 323 defeated him in a bloody battle; Licinius surrendered on the promise of personal safety; notwithstanding this, half a year later he was strangled by order of Constantine.

	Louis XIV of France
		At the battles of Marsaglia and Staffarde, France was victorious over the allied forces under Victor Amadeus, Duke of Savoy, overrunning his dominion and reducing the territory under his effective command to merely the area around Turin.
		With the Battle of Ramillies and that of Oudenarde, Franco-Spanish forces were driven ignominously out of the Spanish Netherlands; and the Battle of Turin forced Louis XIV to evacuate what few forces remained to him in Italy.
		Furthermore, the Battle of Malplaquet in 1709 showed that it was neither easy nor cheap to defeat the French, for while the Allies gained the field, they did so at an abominable cost, losing 25 000 men, twice that of the French, led by their admirable general, Claude Louis Hector de Villars, duc de Villars.

	Battles: Battle of Milvian Bridge :: 0 A.D. :: Wildfire Games
		The Battle of Milvian Bridge is one of the most crucial battles in Roman history.
		In this battle Constantine made a bold move by using Christian symbols in his army instead of the usual Imperial regalia, signifying a conversion, and he won.
		The formation of the actual battle lines are unknown, as is much of the battle, but we do know that in Constantine’s line the crack Gallic cavalry was in front and in Maxentius’ line the Praetorian Guard held the center.

	Order of Saints Maurice and Lazarus - Regalis
		Although the story is not supported by historical facts, it has been advanced to explain the allusive meaning of the Savoy's motto and battle cry FERT, Fortitudo eius Rhodum tenuit, and their use of a coat of arms (gules a cross argent) identical to that of the Order of Malta.
		They suggest, however, that the confusion may result from a simple misinterpretation of the historical facts; Amedeo VI was in the Holy Land in 1366 and 1367, when he fought alongside the knights of the Order of Saint John.
		The kind staff of the Archivio di Stato of the Province of Turin is to be commended for their special effort in tracking down works which were not to be found in the places indicated by the catalogues and indices.

		In the second battle, the Palmyrenes were also worn down in pursuit of the Roman cavalry, and thus was subsequently defeated when they encountered the infantry.
		The battles of Immae and Emesa should not be seen as outright failure of heavy cavalry, since we do not have detailed records of battles in which the Palmyrenes were successful, perhaps due to recording bias of western sources.
		This battle, considered a failure for cavalry, was one of the last appearances of Roman heavy cavalry before the fall of the Western Empire.
