The Battle of the Four Atolls was a major naval battle during the Fourth Global War, which took place as the Battle of Garmagas Island was raging. In this battle the Risevan Royal Navy under Admiral Auseri Sosten successfully defeated a larger force of Barisem ships sent to resupply and reinforce the assault on the islands.

Widely considered one of the major turning points of the war in the Elaspegian Ocean, the battle had major repercussions on the course of the war, foreshadowing the eventual devastation of the Barisem navy three months later in the Battle of the Osumin Sea and the turning of the tides in Risevne's favour. More immediately, the battle and victory forced another attempt at resupplying the troops by the Kavenain navy, which would lead to yet another fierce naval battle and victory for the Risevani in the Battle of Kaizaruka.
