The irony in war often lies in the contradiction between the stated goals of conflict, such as promoting peace or freedom, and the resulting devastation and suffering it causes. Despite noble intentions, wars frequently lead to loss of life, destruction of communities, and long-term societal trauma. Additionally, the very ideologies that drive nations to fight can become sources of division and conflict, undermining the peace they seek to establish. This juxtaposition highlights the complex and often tragic nature of human conflict.

The surrender of the Army of Northern Virginia was signed in the parlor of Wilmer McClean's home at Appomattox Court House.

It is said by many Civil War historians that the War of Rebellion began on Will McClean's porch and ended in his parlor.

One example of irony in "The War of the Worlds" is when the Martians, superior beings with advanced technology, are ultimately defeated by Earth's bacteria - something they had never encountered or prepared for. This showcases the irony of how a seemingly insignificant and primitive factor leads to the downfall of a highly advanced civilization.
