List of wars by death toll

This list of wars by death toll includes all deaths that are either directly or indirectly caused by war. These numbers include the deaths of military personnel which are the direct results of a battle or other military wartime actions, as well as wartime/war-related deaths of civilians which are often results of war-induced epidemics, famines, genocide, etc. Due to incomplete records, the destruction of evidence, differing methods of counting, and various other reasons, death tolls of wars have often been quite uncertain, and heavily debated.

While the definition of war isn't entirely clear-cut, there is a general understanding of what it is. Merriam-Webster defines war as "a state of usually open and declared armed hostile conflict between states or nations",[1] Oxford English Dictionary defines war as "hostile contention by means of armed forces, carried on between nations, states, or rulers, or between parties in the same nation or state; the employment of armed forces against a foreign power, or against an opposing party in the state",[2] and Encyclopædia Britannica defines war as "a conflict between political groups involving hostilities of considerable duration and magnitude".[3]

This list excludes mass killings and atrocities not explicitly classified as genocides, as well as genocides occurring outside of wartime, human sacrifices, ethnic cleansing operations, and acts of state terrorism or political repression during peacetime.[a]

Notes

edit
  1. ^ Some examples would include the Dirty War (22,000–30,000 killed), the Cultural Revolution (0.4-20 million killed), the Rubber Terror (1.5-13 million killed), the excess mortality period in the Soviet Union under Joseph Stalin (3.2-9 million killed), the Transatlantic slave trade, the Arab slave trade, the Native American Indian genocide, the Human sacrifice in pre-Columbian cultures (20,000-250,000 killed yearly in the Aztec Empire alone), the Dzungar genocide (420,000-480,000 killed), or the Herero and Nama genocide (34,000-110,000 killed). Information about these events might be found in the List of genocides or in the List of ethnic cleansing campaigns.
  2. ^ Before 1927, violence had erupted in the Xinhai 1911 Revolution, which brought an end to the Qing dynasty and the establishment of the Republic of China. Even if major fighting had ceased by 1949, the Chinese Civil War is technically still ongoing, with the "de facto" independent Republic of China in Taiwan still claiming to be the legitimate government of all of China. The People's Republic of China even tried to annex it several times during the Taiwan Strait Crises. Human-caused deaths at a large scale continued with the People's Republic of China starting a Campaign to Suppress Counterrevolutionaries until 1953, which led to an additional 712,000-2,000,000 people executed.[23][24]
  3. ^ In the middle of these conflicts, the Ogaden War between Ethiopia and Somalia took place in the Horn of Africa, and left some 37,000 people killed, being this a phase of the Ethiopian–Somali conflict.
  4. ^ While the civil war ended in 1939, mass killings would continue until 1947, during the White Terror period, which led to the extermination of 160,000-400,000 liberals, socialists of different stripes, Protestants, intellectuals, homosexual people, Freemasons, Jews, and Basque, Catalan, Andalusian, and Galician nationalists.[125][126][127]
  5. ^ A no-fly zone was imposed on Iraq following this conflict, which led to several cruise missile strikes against it between 1991 and 2003, some of them in response to Iraqi actions during the Iraqi Kurdish Civil War (that lasted between 1994 and 1997), and others due to Iraq's failure to comply with United Nations Security Council resolutions regarding Weapons of Mass Destruction.
  6. ^ Political violence in the country has been recorded as early as 1954.[202]
  7. ^ While the starting point of the conflict is usually denoted as the 1948 Arab-Israeli War or the 1947–1948 civil war in Mandatory Palestine, violent strife emerged in the region as soon as 1920 during the Intercommunal conflict in Mandatory Palestine.[208]

  60. ^ Historian John F. Richards estimates that the cumulative impact of Akbar’s campaigns in the north, including the Siege of Ranthambore and the Third Battle of Panipat, led to the deaths of 1 million people or more, both from direct military action and the resulting famines and displacements (John F. Richards, The Mughal Empire, 1993). Similarly, Satish Chandra’s analysis highlights the widespread destruction and execution orders that contributed to a high civilian death toll (Satish Chandra, Medieval India: From Sultanate to the Mughals, 1997). The total number of deaths resulting from the Mughal conquest of North India (1526–1605) is difficult to ascertain, as historical records from the period do not provide exact cumulative figures. However, estimates from modern historians suggest that between 1 million and 2 million people, including both military personnel and civilians, perished as a result of warfare, massacres, and famines caused by the Mughal campaigns.

Thus ended for a time one of the bloodiest wars in history. During the two years and more the loss of life was frightful; nothing remains upon which to base a reliable estimate, but the War Monument at Kiuto, and the accounts of such battles as Kyong-chu, Choung-chu, Haing chu, the Im Chiu River, Pyongyang, Yenan, the massacre at Söul, Ulsan and Chiu-chu, and fifty other engagements would make a million lives a conservative estimate.

Of the 38,000 who were wounded, 20,000 were men, 10,000 women, 5,000 young girls, and 3,000 children.

As our estimate of the civilian deaths in the Tigray war is regularly mentioned in the media, it seems important to share our evolving understanding and updated (lower) number of civilian deaths as a result of the Tigray war and blockade. We concluded that the IPC/FEWS categorization, on which our Tigray statistics are mainly based, overestimates hunger mortality. Along with developing information on the ground, this would point to a total number of civilian deaths ranging from 162,000 to 378,000.
