Trivia: The Battle of the Catalaunian Fields pitted Rome against what leader?
Genghis Khan
Hannibal Barca
Alexander the Great
Attila the Hun
The correct answer is Attila the Hun
So why is this answer correct? : The Battle of Catalaunian Fields was a showdown between Flavius Aetius and Attila the Hun in what is now the Champagne region of France. This battle was the first time European forces were able to defeat Attila’s army, and historians believe this result brought an end to the Hunnic invasion of Europe. Things went downhill for Attila from there, as he retreated, then unsuccessfully tried to invade Italy the following year. Within two decades, his empire was finished.
