where's the 7 years war

War of Spanish Succession is generally contended as the first world war because it was fought cross continents by multiple states.

>no seven years war
retard

>>18144090
why should we go any further? that's what a world war is.

>>18144154
A world war should involve all the continents really. Cause that's what the world is

>>18144162
so the previous world wars weren't world wars? they did not touch south america and the antarctica.

>The 30 years war
>The Napoleonic wars
Its not even that you can't make this arguement, but these are probally the two stupidest wars you could have picked for it

>>18143536 (OP)
7 years war?

>>18143536 (OP)
The term "world war" is fucking retarded anyway. Even during WW2 most of the world was at peace.

>>18143536 (OP)
"world war" is a conventional name for two particular wars. there's nothing more to it, but autists want to have rules based on which such naming is decided (cf Pluto is a planet). that should be the autists' personal problem.

>>18144358
no it wasn't. ww2 was fought in africa, east asia, south america and india as well.
