Why do more civilians than soldiers die in war?
Shouldn't it be the other way around? After all, soldiers put themselves in danger and fight

Are old books worth using as sources of knowledge?
ByHilla474
I found two interesting history books about the Middle Ages and World War II, but they're from the 1980s. So I wanted to ask, in your experience, how outdated such history books are, and whether they're still worthwhile sources of knowledge, or whether I should look for newer books.
Military service again after 1 year?
Hello, I have the following question. I completed voluntary military service in 2023 and unfortunately dropped out after four months (January 2024). Now I'm returning to the force in January 2025. Can anyone tell me whether my fellow soldiers will re-instruct me in the IGFs or weapons training, etc., or will they require me to…
Bundeswehr FWD German citizenship?
I'm 18 years old and would like to apply for a FWD (freedom of residence permit). My parents are from Portugal and moved to Germany when they were 25 and 27. I've lived in Germany my entire life (18 years), but I have Portuguese citizenship. I've heard there are exceptions, or do I have to…

Does part-time service in the Bundeswehr extend the period of commitment?
I mean, for example, if you work 50 percent for two years, do you have to make up the time by one year?
Longest sieges in World War II?
What were the three longest sieges in World War II? First place goes to the Siege of Leningrad, which lasted almost 900 days. The Siege of Budapest is also among the top three (as far as I know). But which were the longest city sieges in World War II? I can't find any details.
It’s not always like that!
But soldiers are different.
viable
Soldiers don’t always fight at the front. Also from safe distance. Are trained, have protective clothing and know what they expect. Civilists have nothing of this and are always an ice-cold surprise. In addition, for strategic reasons, civilians rather than soldiers and materials are sacrificed.
From safe distance? You mean Artillery, logistics soldiers?
A war is hardly a fight man against man today. In the first world war the opponent was stabbed with bayonet. Speaking face to face. Today the greatest task is to use the technology.
This is all about the conflict. In Ukraine, for example, this is not the case, there are most dead, soldiers. But in the case of a Third World War, of course you would be right.
In Vietnam,Korea War more civilians died that I would not now call World War 2
Yeah, she didn’t list. Doesn’t mean I would deny that. DAs were really dirty. But yes, it’s a lot like that.
Achso and Chechnya War and Gaza War have also died more civilians than soldiers, which is really funny 🤨🤨
Because where the bombs are thrown, people will live. This is either accepted or done intentionally.
Okay, thanks
Because there are more civilians than soldiers
Thank you
Because it is practical not to have to pay attention to everything in order to express it like that.
Can you explain that?
I’m just happy with it. What do you want to know?
It’s different with every war. Like Russia Ukraine, I don’t think so. But to mention 2 examples:
In Korea, more civilians were killed than soldiers
Yeah, maybe before. When there were the great battles. It looks different today.
Ne I speak of modern wars 2 World War, Vietnam, Korea War there are more civilians dead
This is only after the first world war.
Why is that?

In the first world war only the front areas were in war. With World War II, the air raids began with the development of long-haul bomber aircraft
