The Battle of Franklin occurred on November 30, 1864, during the American Civil War as part of the Franklin-Nashville Campaign. It was initiated by Confederate General John Bell Hood's attempt to break the Union lines and regain control of Tennessee. Hood aimed to disrupt Union supply lines and force a decisive confrontation, but his forces faced strong defenses under Union General John Schofield. The battle resulted in a devastating defeat for the Confederates, significantly weakening Hood's army.
