I wasn't even including war! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Holocaust https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Holocaust > Between 1941 and 1945, Nazi Germany and its collaborators systematically murdered some six million Jews across German-occupied Europe, around two-thirds of Europe's Jewish population. Notice the use of the word "murdered" in the second sentence of the article, as well as throughout the rest. The context was violence, not criminality. But even if it were criminality, the Holocaust is widely considered a crime against humanity.

> I wasn't even including war! Maybe you never intended to, but your comment reads: > Nazi Germany murdered more people in a single named process Reference to Nazi Germany does not, as you say, necessarily equate to war. However "a single named process" would to most readers be treated as narrowing it down to "a single named process" - World War Two. The most obvious simple reading of your comment would give the clear impression you meant the war. If that wasn't the intention, if the named process was the wider genocide, or simply the Third Reich, then fair enough. But I'm sure you can understand any misreading.
