Why was World War II the world’s deadliest conflict? A. because so many different countries were involved B. because it was the longest conflict in history C. because it had the most destructive weapons D. because of the Holocaust and “final solution

Answer 1

World War II is considered the world’s deadliest conflict primarily due to A. because so many different countries were involved, and D. because of the Holocaust and “final solution.”

While it featured the use of more destructive weapons and lasted several years, the sheer scale of involvement from numerous nations and the systematic genocide of six million Jews and millions of others in the Holocaust significantly contributed to the overall death toll. However, if you had to choose one answer that encompasses the broader reasons behind the death toll, A would be the most accurate.
