The Second World War was the most deadly and destructive war in world history, and lasted from 1939 to 1945. It cost more money, damaged more property, killed more people, and caused more far-reaching changes than any other war in history. The statistics vary greatly, and are still a source of contention, but it is estimated that: § More than 100 million people from more than 30 countries were mobilized; § The number of military personnel killed ranges between 22 to 30 million (including the deaths in captivity of approximately 5 million prisoners of war); § The number of civilians killed ranges between 38 to 55 million (including 19 to 25 million from war-related disease and famine); and
§ In total, it is estimated that between 60 and 85 million people were killed in the conflict (which was around 3.5% of the world population at the time). § World War II saw 383,800 British soldiers killed (which was nearly 1% of the population of the United Kingdom at the time). Sources:
