The battle took place near Zrínyiújvár/ Novi Zrin (Zrínyi/Zrinski's family's fortress) in present-day Croatia and resulted in Hungarian-Croatian victory. Context From the beginning of its construction in 1661, Novi Zrin/Zrínyiújvár fortress was a thorn in the eye of both Ottoman forces in the region because it compromised their positions in Kanije Eyalet, as well as Habsburg Imperial authorities. The Habsburgs at a time wanted to remain in the defensive on their eastern borders against the Ottomans.

Battles Of The Austro-Turkish War (1663–64)
A battle is an occurrence of combat in warfare between opposing military units of any number or size. A war usually consists of multiple battles. In general, a battle is a military engagement that is well defined in duration, area, and force commitment. An engagement with only limited commitment between the forces and without decisive results is sometimes called a skirmish. The word "battle" can also be used infrequently to refer to an entire operational campaign, although this usage greatly diverges from its conventional or customary meaning. Generally, the word "battle" is used for such campaigns if referring to a protracted combat encounter in which either one or both of the combatants had the same methods, resources, and strategic objectives throughout the encounter. Some prominent examples of this would be the Battle of the Atlantic, Battle of Britain, and Battle of Stalingrad, all in World War II.
