The European Civil War
The European Civil War refers to a broad conflict within Europe during the early 20th century, primarily encompassing World War I (1914-1918) and World War II (1939-1945). These wars involved many European nations fighting to defend or expand their interests, often leading to widespread destruction, political upheaval, and shifts in global power. The conflicts were driven by political, ideological, economic, and territorial disputes, with consequences that shaped modern Europe's borders, societies, and international relations. They are called "civil wars" in a broader sense as they involved internal and regional conflicts within the continent's nations.
