Battle of the Maule
The Battle of the Maule was fought between the Mapuche people and the Inca Empire in what is now Chile.

In a six-year campaign with an army that eventually rose to 50,000 men, the Inca general Sinchiruca had subdued the regions of northern Chile, Copiapó, Coquimbo, Aconcagua and the Maipo Valley around what is now Santiago.
