Millions Lost: These Were the Worst Civil Wars (America Does Not Come Close)
The U.S. Civil War was deadly, but these conflicts were worse and some of them took many more lives.
Key point: Some civil wars last long, others take forever. Worst, some of these terrible conflicts resulted in an astounding number of lives lost.
There are many types of civil wars. Sometimes, such as the American Civil War, one segment of the population simply wants to leave and set up a separate country. Other times an upstart political faction wishes to gain control of the country.
In other circumstances, outside interests may attempt to partition the state to weaken it or gain access to its resources. Somewhat common during Cold War were civil wars in which a single people were partitioned into separate states, and then one group attempted to force a single state solution.
