And lets not forget that the usual low level raiding is usually beneath the notice of historians.That in some region one power won so completely to suppress all opposition for longer periods of time does not negate that. Those regions are all outlier and special because they had peace.I also disagree that wars were small and the non combatants not affected. That certainly does not apply to the ancient area. And even after that mass enslavement of entire cities did happen.But for the people living there it was entirely possible to live ones entire life without bigger conflict.Depends on if humans can find an alternative to creating and maintaining fire. If not an industrial centre can require hundreds of tons of wood per year and it is hard to do that sustainable I think (not sure though).</blockquote>
