Why was The Great War the bloodiest war?
The Great War is another name for World War 1, as far as I know The Great War was not even close to the death figure as World War 2.Death figure according to Wikipedia:16.5 million deaths in World War 1113 million deaths in World War 2These numbers include civilian and military deaths, it doesn't include the wounded. The numbers don't come close to matching up. According to these numbers I am pretty sure World War 2 was the bloodiest war, not World War 1.I hope this is somewhat useful information.
What made World War 1 the bloodiest and deadliest war up to that time in history did it have to be that way. Could things possibly have turned out differently and how?
It actually wasn't the bloodiest war up to that point- but it was definitely "one of the bloodiest". Far more people died in the Taiping Revolt in the 1860's than in World War I. As for "did it have to be that way?" - my guess is probably not. But that is one of the questions that historians, philosophers and political scientists have been arguing over since the war started. The Communist leader Lenin, for example, believed it was unavoidable and was unsurprised that it was as bad as it was. But there are plenty of opinions to the contrary, that the war could've been avoided- even the combatants believed it could have been avoided and that Germany forced it to happen, which is why Germany had to agree to the War Guilt Clause of the Treaty of Versailles.

Is the Civil War the bloodiest war ever?
The US Civil War killed more American citizens than any other war. But it's far from being the bloodiest war. Some estimate that millions of natives died during Americas expansion westward from disease and battle. The American Civil War killed an estimated 618,000 Americans while WWI had 116,000 American deaths. WWII had 416,800 and Vietnam had 58,267 American deaths. Compare that to the tens of millions killed in places like China or countries in southeast Asia during their civil wars.
Was The Civil War the biggest war ever experienced and Why?
World War 2, September 1939 to September 1945 was the biggest war in history. It was fought over the entire planet, and involved tens of millions of people and millions died in it. The American Civil (1861 to 1865) was the worst war in American history, because it was Americans (Union soldiers) killing Americans (Confederate Soldiers), but, it was not the biggest war in the history of the planet. WW2 was by far and away, the biggest war in the history of the human race.
Was World War 2 good for the us?
I think that to answer this question you have to know what happend in the world war. Yes, that's a fair point. The history books are written: They graphically show what happened. I'm thinking there can be very few, if any, good wars. WW2 was by far the worst in history.
