The collateral cost from civil wars, revolution movements, or other massive uprisings in China is immense. Like absolutely staggering. The "collateral costs" have previously been in the >1,000,000 death range, and this has happened multiple times in the last few centuries.
E.g. taiping rebellion (>10 million), Dungan revolt, Du Wenxiu, etc...
The most recent large one only killed like 8 million people though, so we've got that going for us I guess.
