500 Greatest Generals in History: 300-201

I created a query that looks at every battle article in Wikipedia and identifies the military commander who won the battle.
This video shows the 300th to 201st military commanders that won the most battles.

Rules
• Battles are included only if they have a Wikipedia article

Methodology:
I used Wikipedia as a directory of battles:

1. I created a query with Wikidata Query to get the list of all articles tagged as "battle" by Wikipedia. This gives me about 12,000 battles

2. I downloaded the data that is included in the top right hand table of every of those Wikipedia article. I did it for the following versions of Wikipedia: English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Arabic, Chinese, Russian, Greek, Turkish, Serbo-Croatian, Japanese, Danish, Norwegian, Slovakian, Dutch, Polish, Hungarian, Czech, Hindi, Hebrew, Basque, Bulgarian, Romanian, Catalan, Finnish, Swedish, Vietnamese, Persian, Indonesian, Korean

3. I cleaned up the data on Excel to remove double entries :

4. I created an index of countries with their predecessor states:

Von Richthofen, the Red Baron, fought in no battles. He was a fighter pilot, with 80 victories. What "battles" did he fight in and win?

232 Stanisław Żółkiewski The only man in history who occupied Moscow.

Im surprised to see Aurelian so low, I think he won more battles but they were attributed to the previous emperor before he came to power

Hola Cottereau, ¿qué programa has usado para editar el video y que se vayan deslizando así para la derecha? Me gustaría hacer uno parecido al tuyo con los mejores waterpolistas de la historia pero estoy un poco perdido, gracias!
