IMO it’s the Franco Prussian war. It was the last major war where kino cavalry and bayonet charges were actually effective strategies. Almost like a swan song for thousands of years of warfare.

Where's Viggo?

By the 1630s all armies fought in a similar fashion. The Tercio was an organizational structure.
