Does anyone really want to count the wars any given nation has fought in the last thousand years? I don't know, but apart from a select few still existing countries, you will need a lot more than two hands full of fingers to do the math.
Also, I think Hammy may have actually fractured the barrier between this world and the world of The Dead with this necro.
Bad Hammy. Thou shalt not unleash the revenant armies upon humanity. If you have any serious concerns, are being harassed, or just need someone to talk to, feel free to contact me via PM Quote: Thou shalt not unleash the revenant armies upon humanity. Oh, sure...ruin everyone else's fun. Boru

Another part of the trouble is defining 'war' and then deciding if a particular conflict qualifies as such. Boru

UK only became a world power because of the industrial revolution which started in 1760. This gave us superior technology to the rest of the world which allowed us to conquer exploit the resources of other countries. We long ago lost that advantage. I often think that the UK jump into every war it can as a way to train its forces. Luckily we didn't join in the Vietnam war. |
