[I was talking to a Boer leader here in SA and he was bemoaning Brother wars. I then told him that there's a war nobody ever speaks about. Jan]

If you are looking for wars that slaughtered Whites … millions died during the Napoleonic wars… but a war that nobody ever mentions is that the BLOODIEST WAR ever fought in what is now Germany, is the Thirty Years war in the 1600s. That was Christian Catholic vs Christian Protestant. Almost 1/3rd of all people in Germany were slaughtered. Believe it or not, compared to the population of the time, that White Christian vs Christian war wiped out more Whites as a percentage of the population than WW1 and WW2 did. It was a 100% Christian war. I should add, that White Christians slaughtered other White Christians. It was a "world war" – because troops from other nations fought on German soil. It was known for it’s horrific atrocities. Christians would slaughter entire villages and towns of other Christians. Here’s a short summary of the death toll: Death Toll:
The war led to massive devastation across Europe, especially in the German territories. The population of the Holy Roman Empire was reduced drastically due to military actions, famine, and disease.

Estimates of the total number of deaths range from 4 million to 8 million people. Some sources suggest that up to 20-30% of the German population was wiped out during the conflict.
This makes the Thirty Years’ War one of the deadliest conflicts in European history, particularly considering the size of the population at the time.
The Thirty Years’ War left lasting political, social, and economic scars on Europe, and its consequences shaped the modern state system in Europe through the treaties signed during the Peace of Westphalia.
