Fights, or battles, are organized conflicts between groups, often involving armed forces. They can occur in various contexts, such as wars between nations or skirmishes between smaller factions. The primary goal of a battle is to gain control over a territory, resources, or to achieve political objectives. Battles can be fought using different strategies and tactics, depending on the forces involved and the terrain. Historical examples include the Battle of Gettysburg during the American Civil War and the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. The outcomes of battles can significantly influence the course of history and the balance of power.
