they’re some of the most violent
conflicts the world has ever seen
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
bloodiest Wars of the last century we
know that the cost of freedom is high
but we are determined to preserve our
freedom no matter what to call for this
list we’ve limited it to wars that
occurred during the last 100 years since
the number of deaths can’t always be
100% confirmed we’ve based the entries
on those that are generally considered
the worst number 10 the Second Sudanese
civil war 11 years after half a million
died in the first Sudanese Civil War
North and South Sudan returned to
violent fighting for over two decades
with the Sudan People’s Liberation Army
representing the south and the Central
Sudanese government fighting for the
north the war included thousands of
child soldiers and millions of displaced
people after the 2005 peace agreement
the death toll was estimated at about 2
million number 9 the Vietnam War part of
the Indochina Wars and the cold war this
conflict took place in Vietnam Laos and
Cambodia in an attempt to stop North
Vietnam from spreading communism the
us-backed non-communist south vietnam
and because of this the conflict is also
known as the American war in Vietnam
though the two states were eventually
united the Air Ground and guerrilla
warfare practice in Vietnam caused up to
3 million mortalities I’m hopeful and I
will try with best I can with everything
I’ve got to end this battle and to
return our sons to their desires number
8 the Korean War falling within the Cold
War this conflict occurred between right
wing South Korea and communist North
Korea after the Korean peninsula was
divided following the end of the Pacific
War tensions increased with North
Korea’s invasion of South Korea in
d two million deaths later an armistice
agreement and the institution of the
Korean Demilitarized Zone along the 38th
parallel finally resolved the war number
seven the Soviet war in Afghanistan
after over nine years of fighting it’s
not shocking to discover that this war
resulted in over two million fatalities
even more refugees and thousands of
missing or wounded soldiers also part of
the Cold War this conflict pitted Soviet
Union backed Afghan forces against
Mujahideen rebels who were supported by
various countries worldwide though the
Soviets eventually left instability
continued in the country thereafter with
the Taliban and al-qaeda number six the
Nigerian civil war the Nigerian B Afrin
war began several years after Nigeria
became independent from Britain it was
caused by the conflicts that arose
between multiple ethnic groups and their
differing cultural and religious values
the Igbo people in particular desired
separation to become the Republic of
Biafra though the Biafra pnes were
ultimately absorbed back into the
country three million were dead from the
fighting starvation and illness we have
fought a long bitter battle
and it was ended in a victory for common
sense victory or the unity of this
country number five the second Congo war
with nine African nations and over
twenty armed units the great war of
Africa was the worst conflict the region
had ever seen it erupted shortly after
the first Congo war which resulted in
Laurent disarray Kabila’s taking over
the government and expanded amid growing
tensions with Rwanda and Uganda marked
by the use of rape as well as other
weapons the second Congo war resulted in
over five million dead from sickness and
famine with much tension continuing
today number four the Russian Civil War
this civil war broke out after the
Bolsheviks staged a coup d’etat during
the Russian Revolution and launched the
first socialist state along with the
white armies anti-bolshevik s– several
armies from other nations gathered to
protest the Red Army’s new government
the ensuing battles left between five
and nine million dead and cleared the
path for Joseph Stalin to become leader
of the Soviet Union following Vladimir
Lenin’s death number three the second
sino-japanese war though there’d been
some fighting between China and Japan in
the early 30s full-scale war really
exploded in 1937 following the Marco
Polo Bridge incident and the Japanese
invasion of China the conflict then
became entwined with the Second World
War after Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor
as more countries in the region became
involved in this Pacific war more people
were affected by war’s end over 20
million were dead wounded sick or
missing number two World War one with
all the world’s great powers
participating the first world war pitted
the Allies against the Central Powers of
Germany and austria-hungary it became
one of the world’s worst global
conflicts to that point because of its
use of high-tech weapons and millions of
soldiers for human wave attacks
with over 35 million lives lost the war
has been said to have also laid the
foundation for world war 2 number one
world war two considering world is in
its name it’s not surprising that the
Second World War tops the list so many
of the planets nations were involved
it’s been estimated that over 70 million
deaths occurred from the over 100
million who fought in the military to
the civilians mass murdered in the
Holocaust or by nuclear warfare this
global conflict truly changed history is
it possible they do not realize that we
shall never cease to persevere against
them until they have been taught a
lesson
which they and the world will never
forget war time violence often results
in the unnecessary loss of life security
homes wealth and more it’s important
that we learn from our past so we don’t
