Contents Geographic designations used to effect the following arrangement are in some cases (e.g., "Eastern Europe") compromises aimed at enhancing reference use; they are not meant to have political implications nor are they rigidly the same from one century to the next. Wars involving several geographic regions (for example, World War I) are found at the end of the section. Wars that overlap centuries are placed in the century in which they began.
