The Most Significant Battle in History
What do you think is the most significant battle in history? It doesn't have to be set in fact in a history book, this is about your opinion and no one elses.
Alternatively if you don't have an idea of the most significant, what is your favorite battle to study if you have any?
I cant put it down to a single battle, so in my opinion the Eastern Front during World War 2 was the most significant.

Had Lee won at Sharpsburg it could have brought British aid to help the Confederates defeat the Union. Had the Confederates won at Gettysburg Lee would have continued pushing his invasion of the North. If the Confederates had won the Civil War it could have set a precedent of secession if you didn't agree with the Unions policies and led to Balkanization of the United States.[/quote] I'm interested to learn all of you peoples thoughts on this.[/quote] It's pretty dumbfounding to think of North American as a Balkanized territory. It has really never crossed my mind.
