How many cities were destroyed in World War I and how many in World War II?

Answer 1

In World War II you can go through almost every nation in Europe that wasn't neutral and find most of their cities were destroyed to some degree by airplanes bombing or through artillery. In the Pacific every Japanese city was flattened by the U.S. Army Air Corps and every city along the coastal region of China was destroyed in the war between the Japanese and the Chinese.

In World War I, damage to civilian centers was less because the front line became stagnant and hence most of the casualties and damage occurred in the trenches. Also, there were no significant air assets in use for the majority of the conflict so strategic bombing never achieved the levels it would in the Second World War.

Answer 2

too much
