Is it really that unheard of for a major world-wide war to last one hundred years? How long to wars on your worlds last?

OOC: Sensitive topic warning- this thread with Minerva (corkscrewcurls) involves discussion of genocide and the Holocaust.

Don't patronize me; I know what genocide is.

... Nine million? Are you from one of the worlds that has billions and billions of people?

[corkscrewcurls.livejournal.com]

yes, seven billion, I believe was the last count.

1/2

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

I see.

2/2

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Regardless, if the people he wiped out were standing in the way of his goals...

[corkscrewcurls.livejournal.com]

They were innocent people!

The only thing against them was their race.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

What was their race doing that made him consider them that much of a threat?

[corkscrewcurls.livejournal.com]

absolutely nothing. The man was completely insane.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

If it was insanity, you should have said so in the first place. You made it sound as if he had a valid reason.

[corkscrewcurls.livejournal.com]

I did say the war was to stop him, did I not?

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

You still made it sound as if the people he slaughtered were standing in his way of expansion, which would have been a valid reason for their destruction.

[corkscrewcurls.livejournal.com]

I did nothing to suggest that.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

You said that he was trying to conquer all of "Europe", whatever that is. I put two and two together and assumed that the genocide had something to do with that.

[corkscrewcurls.livejournal.com]

yes... and generally those who try to take over the world, are certifiably insane.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Not if they go about it realistically.

[corkscrewcurls.livejournal.com]

even thinking that you could conquer something so big puts at debate of being insane.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

On your world, perhaps.

[corkscrewcurls.livejournal.com]

I think the same should apply to all worlds.

[peoplesprincess.livejournal.com]

Not all worlds are the same size. If there was a world the size of a large city, would you consider it too large to be ruled by one government?
