Battle-related deaths in state-based conflicts since 1946, by world region , 1946 to 2016

The region refers not to the location of the battle but to the location of the primary state or states involved in the conflict (see 'Sources' tab). Only conflicts in which at
least one party was the government of a state and which generated more than 25 battle-related deaths are included. The data refer to direct violent deaths (i.e.
excluding outbreaks of disease or famine).
