Battle of Irbid (Gizenatter War)

The Battle of Irbid was the final and most important battle of the Gizenatter War, involving over thirty thousand combatants and a number of watercraft. It was directly-responsible for the fall of the Irhmeti Empire and ended their position as the main rival of the Yilireti Empire. Though outnumbered, the Irhmeti force fought fiercely, inflicting heavy losses on their enemies. The battle, however, was ultimately a matter of numbers and the victory was due to the Yilireti Empire's centralised government, allowing it to call upon a great force. King Sanko II's inability to raise troops from other parts of the empire was also responsible for his defeat.
