HiHi

What is my name

I am a great battle with 50,000 dead, which dramatically altered the course of history turning one empire towards the East and leading within a few years to the creation of another. I have 2 names (either will do) and corn played a major part.

Corn play a major part in the name of the battle or in the battle itself?

HiHi

Good call David, Corn played a part in the actual fighting, not in the names, sorry I should have made that clear.

The battle of the Nations, also known as the battle of Leipzig in 1813.... led eventually to the creation of a united German state.

HiHi

Sorry Paul no, but you are heading in the right general direction.
