🚩 The Franks, led by Charles Martel, met the Muslim army commanded by Abd al-Rahman, the Umayyad governor of Spain, in early October 732 AD. Some have argued that this brief conflict influenced the fate of Christian civilization in Europe, while others see it as a simple border skirmish. The truth, it seems, lies somewhere in-between.

🚩 At the start of the campaign in Italy, Prince Eugene maneuvered his army through the Alps and crossed the Lower Adige river, but he still had to gain access to the plain of Verona. He knew that speed and surprise would decide the outcome of the first battle of the War of Spanish Succession.
