The contribution for the world wars from British colonies especially India often gets ignored, thankfully the causality image acknowledges it

How often this was reposted?
And how often people wonder about the high death number of Turkey / Ottoman Empire? (-> Armenian genocide)

Personally, casualties expressed as a %age of population is more useful.

Serbia still recovering

Dark Russia tells an even darker story: their refusal to get out of the war was the proximate cause of the Bolshevik Revolution. And think how many corpses **that** eventually led to.

With the current wars going on and constant listings of casualty numbers being reported I think it should be important to state casualty doesn’t mean deaths. I have many friends who think when they read the number of casualties it is the amount of people killed. A casualty of war is anyone injured or killed in a war. Not just the amount killed.

Terrible color usage . Percentage is much more relevant

The amount of war crimes committed against Serbia by mostly Austria-Hungary, but also Germany and Bulgaria are some of the worst seen in this war and often get overlooked. Not to mention the war was forced on Serbia and it was one of the few countries that didn’t enter it willingly.
If anyone is curious about this, I suggest you look up the Serbian retreat across Albania, to Greece. It’s one of the reasons why Serbs will always see Greeks as a “brotherly” nation. It’s such a tragic, but inspiring story.
Karma is a bitch though at least, so the whole ordeal costing Austria its precious empire is a great outcome imo

The world we live in is more a result of World War One than we realize.

The percentage should be of the male between the age of 18-40, and a grim reality appears.

It’s a miracle that Turkiye was able to stand up and fight off the occupying forces after WWI

probably more meaningful to give colors as percentage of the population.

why so many france ded as percent?

And almost all of these casualties are men between 16 and 50 (for France / germany / England). So you can multiply it by almost 4 for this specific population

Why is Russia the biggest loser in every big war. “ hey guys, run over that hill and absorb some bullets for us, would you?”

These figures are for deaths so the map title should state that rather than “casualties” which could include the injured too.

How come so many Scandinavians died? We weren’t even part of the war. Fishermen hitting mines?

Everytime this map gets reposted I always check for the inevidable Arminian Genoicide argument and am never disapointed.

Interesting that the Entente lost so many more people than the Central Powers.
I thought the Entente especially in the west had a tactical ( it was fought in France) and technological advantage? I guess Germany was just better at strategy?
