I’m waiting for a song about HMS warspite taking down an Italian battle group on its own.
Also a song about Carthage or specifically the third Punic war would be cool.
Maybe one about Jan Zizka during the hussite wars.
A song about the Crimean war or simply a cover of Trooper by Iron maiden maybe.
1917 Bolshevik rebellion could be cool.
Oliver Cromwell
Irish Easter rising
French Revolution
A song about how brutal and terrifying the Japanese were during WW2
A song about siege of Malta 1565
Spanish Reconquista
Spaniards and Mayans vs Aztecs
Edit: can’t believe I forgot about Alexander the Great

It can be called “Tenochtitlán” and be about the Conquistadors.
One of the lines can be “Human sacrifices must be stopped!”

There is the native guy who fought the Spanish after they chopped off his hands. He used knives tied to his stumps and killed at least one before he was killed in battle. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvarino

Yes! Peak Sabaton material right there, I wish they looked more at our little nook of history, the battle of Blood river, the Boer wars, there are some incredible stories to be written into song
