The world was in a state of total war, where nations put theit entire military, economic and scientific capabilities for the war effort, blurring the line between military and civilian. Nearly 85 million people were killed between the ferocious battles, the mass death of civilians in events such as bombing raids and the Extermination by the Confederacy, and only use of nuclear weapons in war, making World War II the deadliest conflict in history.
