It was hard to classify any wars in Europe in WWII, and these are the only war related events I could find (Terrorist Attacks, Cold war deaths from forced labor of the Soviet Union, and other attacks I won't consider as wars). The Russo-Ukrainian conflict started in 2014 and includes the invasion of Crimea (6 deaths), the current invasion of Ukraine, and the Donbas (13,000-14,000 deaths, since 2014). Will be updated every so often. Comment any conflicts you think should be here, mistakes, or type ins.

- The Troubles (UK / Northern Ireland)

- Basque / ETA insurgency (Spain)

- Year of Lead (Italy)

Those definitely should be considered.

Maybe split Yugoslav wars, it is a common name given to several totally unrelated conflicts. Slovenian war of independence (1991) has nothing to do with Bosnia (92-95), which has nothing to do with Kosovo (98-99) and Macedonia (2001).

Russian invasion of Georgia is not considered Europe?

First and Second chechen war inside Russia perhaps?

Turkish invasion of Northern Cyprus?

All 3 wars in Nagorno-Karabakh (1988-94, 2016 and 2020) are not considered as Europe?

Also it may be better, if you added a column for the years as a hint. This way it is too random based just on casualties and it can be anything

I changed the quiz and added new conflicts, and a dates column.
