Which country has been involved in most number of wars ?

Question

i.e. attacked most countries. Are they also responsible for killing most number of humans ?Or does that credit go to some other nation?

Answer 1

Number of wars - One of the empires - probably the Romans (Eastern and Western empires) but maybe The Huns, The Mongols, Alexander the Great

Most deaths - that is probably a tie between WW2 and The Mongols. Given the differing allies in WW1 & 2, then probably the Mongols take the 'credit' for most deaths, followed by Germany

Answer 2

Most Wars Looks like Iran or Iraq due to geography and the very long time that civilization and organized warfare has existed there.

They have a several thousand year head start over everyone else. But keep in mind the original occupiers of those lands are long dust now as these lands have been invaded and re-invaded and churned dozens of times throughout history.

By the Numbers it has to go to China (but they will disavow Genghis Khan as a "foreign occupier", but he used Chinese troops so I say he counts.

India is second for similar reasons to the two above, age and geography and populations.

America does not even register by these standards, despite having access to modern populations and using nuclear weapons twice.

German has to be given a dishonorable mention for the Holocaust.

6 million Jews plus 25% of Poland in World War Two, intense death on a clinical scale that makes the mind shutter at its efficient brutality.

The Romans did not kill on a mass scale very often because they wanted slaves.
the British Empire was remarkably bloodless for its size and extant.

Answer 3

I don't know who has been invoilved in the most number of wars but i suspect that England/Britian comes fairly high up o that list. As for who has killed the most peoolle that's easy. The Germans, without a shadow of a doubt. As well as all the militry combatants they killed during two world wars, in the second they killed hundreds of thousands of British civillians and then a staggering 6 million Jews. On top of this they also bumped off gypsies, mentally disabled people etc etc. I dount any other nation has come close, although Stalin was quite bad and the US did kill a lot of Germans, japanese, Koreans and Vietnamese.

Answer 4

The Roman Empire, and the the British Empire as far as accurately recorded history. Pre-written history would undoubtedly show an even greater total for the Asian countries. As for all of the geniuses that said America, ignore them, they don't know history from a bears ***. America is just 230 years old, and can't hold a candle to the other 2 listed. People try so hard to show the USA in a bad light that even if it means displaying their ignorance and bias to do it, they will.

Answer 5

Not USA, their list is fairly small, but famously includes the native Americans, the British and themselves! England/Britain/UK must be favourites. As one time rulers of a vast empire it seems likely that in terms of numbers of ` wars`or lesser military actions the Brits take some beating. The doubtful `credit`, of killing the highest number of people is commonly stated to belong to religion. In general if it ends in "ism", people have died for it!

Answer 6

You've got to go a long way to beat the Brits. I believe we've fought just about everyone in the world by now, probably with the exception of the Russians. It's been a long war history.
During the Napoleonic period for example, we were not just fighting the French, but everyone else in Europe as well. Blimey. "Why us Sarg? Because we're ere son!"

Answer 7

as rome is in italy tht covers the number of wars for casualty figures the soviet union had the most casualties by the way doyou realise the total uk casualties in world war two 388000 was lower than those lost at the somme in 1916 and that includes the civilians killed in the blitz

Answer 8

no actually probably the British(Or English), they fought against china (opium wars) took over India, fought the french, dutch, Spanish, Portuguese, Americans, Yugoslavian and countless other small nations over the years, they even fought against Afghanistan in the 19th century (and lost). Took over Persia (Iran and Iraq) As they English they fought against Scotland, wales and Ireland as well as all the above.

In terms of people killed I believe the Russian's lost more than anyone else in world war two over 25 million civilian and Military lost the lives

Answer 9

The US has probably been involved one way or another in the most number of wars.I imagine that the Nazis killed the greatest number of people.

Answer 10

I would have to take a guess at this one...

Either the British or Roman Empires. Hence the Roman Empire crumbling, maybe this is a heads up to the rest of us...
