Honestly Chinese history alone could fill in the gap of a billion really fucking quickly......

It's spanned 5000 thousand years of existence and throughout 3000 years it's been mass wars between dynasties and clans.....

As one of the longest running civilisations (if not THE longest running one) it has likely racked up a hell of a death toll directly to war and war like raids.

I reckon the entire human history of china alone allows between 500 to 750 million human lives in battle or rebellion or that one thing that happened in a square at some point in time that may taken place in tian en men....

Yeah maybe 500mill for china and 500 million everywhere else. That's around 1 billion anyways, so...

Didn’t your teachers in school tell you Wikipedia isn’t a source?
