Religios war was once rare - generally they recognised the equivalence of the pantheon of gods - eg Pompey, on capturing Jerusalem, went to the temple and sacrificiced to Jehovah, recognising him as the same as Zeus or Jupiter.

Religious wars came withe the exclusive religions who claimed their god was supreme - Judaism, Christianity and Islam, and were prepared to fight and kill in his name - Jehovah/Allah.

Why did ww1 become global in scope instead of remaining a religious conflict?

World War I escalated beyond a localized conflict due to a complex web of alliances and geopolitical interests among major powers, which transformed it into a global war. Initially sparked by the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the conflict drew in nations across Europe and eventually involved countries from around the world, including colonial empires. The war's nature shifted from regional tensions to a battle for dominance among imperial powers, with colonial troops participating, thus expanding its reach and impact. Additionally, the underlying nationalistic and militaristic sentiments further fueled the global nature of the conflict, overshadowing any religious motivations.
