The Burgundian Civil War was a military conflict between the Burgundian kings Gundobad and Godegisel. The war took place around 500 in the former Roman provinces of Gallia Lugdunesis I and Maxima Sequanorum, where a Burgundian state had emerged after the fall of the Western Roman Empire. The kings were brothers who both controlled parts of Burgundy. Clovis I, the king of the Franks, was also involved.
