Iraqi Freedom is not at the same level as the before mentioned. It is almost insulting.

Iraqi Freedom was an OPERATION not a BATTLE. Battle of Britain should accept just "Britain". Verdun and the Somme were not decisive, just bloody draws at best.

first of all the bad guys ran the iraq country hence a battle though the after effect is stupid 2 just having britain can mean anything it has been know as battle of britain for yonks verdun is a decisive battle because it drew in troops and was surposed to bleed france dry of them taticaly verdun is like the somme and these battles are wot changed the world i know it dosent say that in the first title but in the second one it says Decisive Battles that have shaped History and i carnt stress enough the shaped without out these few battles the world would be very different im sorry if this annoys or offends u in any way

Good work, BritishRebel. But I think especially the second half is mostly battles that are relevant to the UK, not so much to the world as a whole

I agree - accept Britain for Battle of Britain. Also, Tannenberg in 1410 should be under Battle of Grunwald. The Battle of Tannenberg usually refers to the 1914 battle. At very least accept Grunwald as well. Lastly - I would make your third column something else... Just a personal revision tho.
