How severe were the casualties in ancient/medieval battles? Were there any well-documented battles that ended with a controlled withdrawal? |

What were the military justifications for the bombing of Dresden? And surely, the bombing had no impact on resistance of Dresden to Soviet ground troops. Dresden was taken on 8 May 1945, long after Hitler was dead, and after Goering surrendered, and after Jodl signed the final uncoditional surrender; just hours before the surrender went into effect at 23:01 (CET). |

Is it true the British heavily downplayed their defeat in Cartagena? "the name gives you an idea of how important the conflict was considered" - this argument works against you, since the name ("The War of Jenkins' Ear") was coined 100 years after the conflict ended. |

What were the military justifications for the bombing of Dresden? Immediate military value? The only operation that comes to my mind is this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lower_Silesian_Offensive (Mind you, the actual railroad to Breslau was not a target of a Dresden bombing. I'm providing a starting point for research, not implying it was the real/valid intent.) |

What was the reason for Soviet troops to withdraw from Yugoslavia in World War II? I'm not interested in "publicly stated" reasons, but in all historically determinable ones |

What was the reason for Soviet troops to withdraw from Yugoslavia in World War II? @SamuelRussell Scratching my head now over downvote. The sentence mentioning "magic" in no way belongs to my actual question. I've removed it. It's just a minor loss of historical context. |

What were the origins of democracy? @ReliableSource The decision making in hunter-gatherer bands (the "before Neolithic" humans) is backed up by "Guns, Germs, and Steel". |

What was the societal wealth demographics when the major pyramids were built? @NewAlexandria Every your word assures me we are not on the same page at all. "Wealth" and "currency" are terms that don't help with anything here, but very much contribute to misunderstanding and useless debates. |

What was the reason for Soviet troops to withdraw from Yugoslavia in World War II? @Jørgen Thanks for pointing out this little gem. Curiously, Soviets stayed on Norwegian soil until they learnt about Hiroshima and Nagasaki. From Yugoslavia, it seems they withdrew much more quickly. |
