Look up the word "duel", it means any contest between two persons or parties. Once you know the meaning you can use it in a sentence that makes sense to you.

Throught history, a duel was considered a way to reclaim lost honor.
Note: Amdrmgirl's answer is wrong. Sorry, but a "duel" is a fight, usually planned in advance, between two people.
"Dual" is the proper word to use when talking about a pair of objects like "dual exhaust". Another example in videogames is the term "dual wielding", where you can use two weapons at a time, one in each hand.
Hope I helped. ^_^

Duel with that spelling means either a sword or gun fight. One of the most famous in U. S. history was between political rivals Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton in 1804
Aaron Burr challenged Alexander Hamilton to a duel. Hamilton was mortally wounded by Burr during the duel.
