Throughout history, many massacres have occurred that most people nowadays might consider outrageous, but sadly, they can occur even in the developed world.
A massacre is a heavy word to use since it generally refers to killing a large number of people, and it’s terrifying to think what people are capable of doing to each other. These events are most times caused by political incentives and committed by people in power, even by governments themselves.
Even so, we frequently struggle to understand what distinguishes certain occurrences as massacres or other genocides. Despite this, there are certain catastrophes in history that all of us can agree were genocides because of their horrible consequences for humanity. These incidents should serve as a lesson to never make the same mistakes again and to seek to improve as people.
