Savage Continent: The Violence of Domestic Wars and Ethnic Cleansing That Rumbles on During the Aftermath of World War II in Europe

Second World War did not only trigger wars of aggression and counter-aggression among multiple nations, but also provoke domestic revolutionary wars and the ideological class wars. The three types of wars led to expulsions and vendettas within the European nations. Violent ethnic cleansing and civil wars occurred, along with the Soviet-led scuffles between the National Liberation Front and right-wingers. These latter two types of conflicts continued on for many years, deepening the rift between Eastern and Western Europe which end up with the beginning of the Iron Curtain and instigating the Soviet-American Cold War.
