The Battle of Ravenna also known as the Battle of Rimini was fought in 432 between the two strong men of the Western Roman Empire, general Flavius Aëtius and comes Bonifacius. Bonifacius, though victorious, was mortally wounded during the fight, and died several months later, leaving Aëtius de facto ruler of the Western Empire.
