Answer 1

This is a report of the statistical results from a project on comparative genocide and mass-murder in this century. Most probably near 170,000,000 people have been murdered in cold-blood by governments, well over three-quarters by absolutist regimes. The most such killing was done by the Soviet Union (near 62,000,000 people), the communist government of China is second (near 35,000,000), followed by Nazi Germany (almost 21,000,000), and Nationalist China (some 10,000,000). Lesser megamurderers include WWII Japan, Khmer Rouge Cambodia, WWI Turkey, communist Vietnam, post-WWII Poland, Pakistan, and communist Yugoslavia. The most intense democide was carried out by the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia, where they killed over 30 percent of their subjects in less than four years. The best predictor of this killing is regime power. The more arbitrary power a regime has, the less democratic it is, the more likely it will kill its subjects or foreigners. The conclusion is that power kills, absolute power kills absolutely.

Answer 2

I am not sure but since the Jews during WWII were killed because of extremeist thoughts on Hitlers part and mass hysteria on the public's part. I would guess the Muslims because of the same reasons. Or maybe those people that the movie Hotel Rwanda was about alot of people were slaughtered there.

Answer 3

Mass homicide like what? The bombing of Dresden is the in ordinary words get mutually i am going to imagine of... which (and that i"m not helping that both).. is fairly tame in evaluation to systematically figuring out and eliminating an entire race of human of beings. Or the proposed "starvation plan" less than "Generalplan Ost" that the nazi's proposed to have over 20 - 30 million Russian civilians starve to lack of existence to de-populate the area and fill it back up with German colonists years later. What about the *** rape of Nanking or the numerous different terrible atrocities they performed in the course of the Pacific? i'm sorry.. even with the undeniable fact that the in ordinary words best chum which could even declare to have executed something remotely as diabolical because the Axis became the Soviet Union. i'm not affirming the western allies were saints.. yet are you able to even attempt to analyze them?

Answer 4

There were lot of riots in India during the independence of India and the partition associated with it.It was not exactly a mass murder but people from both sides(India and pakistan) killed each other. Lacs of people died in that worst event in the history of india.

Answer 5

I image the Serbian-Bosnian conflict wiped out a great deal of the culture of both sides.

Stalin killed millions of his own people.

As did China and North Korea.

Many N. Koreans have resorted to canibalism to survive.

Hussein killed about 50 thousand Kurds.

Answer 6

Maybe the Cambodians. The Khmer Rouge killed over a million, I've heard.

Answer 7

Mao Tse Tung had 20,000,000 people executed. By percentages of population this does not compare to some other genocides, but in sheer numbers, its the worst.

Answer 8

Armenians

Answer 9

Are you referring to Pol Pot or Mao Tsi-Tung or The World Trade Centre?

Answer 10

I would guess the Cambodians in The Killing Fields, in the 60's.

Am I right?
