WW I was characterized by trench warfare and poison gas, as well as huge battles with enormous casualties. WW II saw the introduction of tanks, fighter planes, bombers, and the V2 rocket, used by Germany to attack England. It was, therefore, a more technologically advanced war, culminating in the greatest technological advance of all, the atomic bomb, used by the US against Imperial Japan. Although many millions of people died in both of these wars, the deliberate slaughter of civilian populations was a particular feature of WW II. And WWII had a much larger number of deaths - over 60 million. The Holocaust remains, in the estimation of historians, the single most terrible crime in the history of the human race. But both wars were quite terrible.
