And then there's this, the mighty Soviet empire invades tiny Finland and gets it ass handed to it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_War

Russia wins wars at the greatest human expense in human history - even against a small country like Finland Russia lost 126,875 lives, Finland lost 25,904

World War II - UK loses 450,000, France the same, the US loses 500,000 - and the Soviet Union? 27,000,000

Here's a quote by the greatest general in modern US military history, George S. Patton -

"The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his."

Anyhoo, I don't think humans have a century left on this planet, between nukes, EMP weapons, cyberterrorism, bioligical weapons and shit we can't imagine now, I don't see how the lid will be kept on all of them. My only question is when it happens, how many people will survive and what kind of hell that will be for them.
