Battle of Towton. Fought on March 29, 1461, between the rival Yorkist and Lancastrian factions for the throne of England, over 28,000 men were killed in the battle. This was 1% of the population of the country. This would be the equivalent of over 3 million Americans dying in a single battle today.
