August 1716 CE
Some eighty-three thousand troops under Eugene rout one hundred and fifty thousand Ottoman Turks under Damad Ali Pasha at the Battle of Peterwardein on the Danube River on August 5, 1716.
Losing six thousand men and over one hundred artillery pieces, the Turks are afterward slow to recover their discipline, for their grand vizier has been mortally wounded.
