Ramesses II led his army at the Battle of Kadesh and this was his most famous fight. The Battle of Kadesh took place between the Hittites in 1274 BC. The Hittites lived in what is now modern day Turkey and Syria. It was the largest chariot battle in history and it was absolute carnage. The fight primarily over control of the lands of the eastern Mediterranean. Many people believe that Ramesses won the battle but there is no proof to support that Ramesses took over the city of Kadesh. The battle was believed to be a draw but Ramesees claimed he had won it.
