The most uncivilized means of warfare that the world had known 


During the Second World War, more bombs by weight were dropped on the city of Berlin than on the whole of Great Britain during the entire war. All German cities with more than 50,000 inhabitants were destroyed by 50% to 80%.

The great city of Dresden, known as the Florence of Northern Europe, was incinerated, and up to 300,000 civilians were burned and buried in the ruins. Hamburg was destroyed and 70,000 civilians died in the most appalling circumstances, while the former city of Cologne was transformed into a moonscape.

Among the German and European cities incinerated were Berlin, Hamburg, Dortmund, Essen, Dresden, Frankfurt, Nuremberg, Düsseldorf, Hanover, Bremen, Wuppertal, Vienna, Duisburg. Munich, Magdeburg, Leipzig, Mannheim, Stuttgart, Kiel, Gelsdenkirchen, Bochum, Aachen, Wurzburg, Darmstadt, Krefeld, Munster, Munchen Gladbach, Braunschweig, Ludwishafen, Remscheid, Pforzheim, Osnabrück Mainz, Bielefeld, Gieben, Duren, Solingen, Wilhelmshaven, Karlsruhe, Oberhausen, Heilbronn, Augsburg, Hamm, Knittelfeld, Luneburg, Cuxhaven, Kulmback, Hagen, Saarbrucken, Freiburg, Graz, Koblenz, Ulm, Bonn Bremerhaven, Wanne-Eickel, Worms, Lubeck, Schweinfurt, Kleve, Wiener Neustadt, Wiesbaden, Paderborn, Bocholt, Hanau, Hildesheim, Emden, Siegen, Pirmasons, Hale, Bayreuth, Kreuznach, Witten, Aschaffenburg Kaiserlautern, Gladbeck, Dorsten, Innsbruck, Neumunster, Linz, Klagenfurt, Reutlingen, Recklinghausen, Reuel, Regensburg, Homberg, Elmshorn, Wetzel, Villach, Hamelin, Konigsberg, Moers, Passau, Solbad Hall I.
