Battle of Trialeti
The Battle of Trialeti was fought between the armies of the Kingdom of Georgia and the Seljuk Empire in 1110. When the Georgians captured Samshvilde and Dzerna in 1110, the Seljuks felt this kind of defeat very hard and could not easily give up, so the Sultan of the Seljuk Empire sent 100,000 men to Georgia but they were defeated by 1,500 men under the command of David IV in Trialeti.
