Crossing of the Andes, around 1500 soldiers out of combat, January-February of 1817.
We don't have many bloody wars. Even the bloodiest day of the Malvinas war only had 33 deaths.

>>67886749
What about when the bongs rekt that cruiser?

>>67886485
1st of july 1916, First day of the somme, 57,470 died.

>>67888112
19,240...come on lad...were not that useless

No fucking idea, probably some battle against the Danes or the Russians 500 years ago or some shit.

I don't think we've had any deadly days. We just aren't into such things. Sorry.

the emu war

>>67886485
kicked out of the Rugby world cup by the Fr*nch in 2007

25k frenchies and caribbeans died during canal construction, then you gave up

9/11 or some Civil War battle.

>>67886485
Battle of Antietam, 3675 KIA

22,717 dead, wounded or missing.
>>67888112
Even an ignorant American such as myself knows 57,470 is just total casualties (KIA, WIA, MIA and captured). >>67888192 is actual dead

The Somme perhaps, a couple of weeks ago we had an art exhibition with 19240 shrouds for everyone who died in the first day.

>>67888664
My mistake. Then it would be >>67888370

First day of the Somme
Pretty much everyone in Newfoundland knew someone who had died

1 July 1916

Somme. The whole history of the world cannot contain a more ghastly word.
—Friedrich Steinbrecher

I think Battle of Gettysburg still to this day has the highest number of people killed on one day in battle in the western Hemisphere

September 19, 1985 if we are counting natural disasters

In both cases it's hard to tell as official tallies are known to be misleading, either could go up to 20,000

1.Nican Tlaca

Year 1521 in jewish calculation smelly murderers killed hundreds of thousands everywhere through war and devious methods of trickery in the end subjection was total

>>67892791
No, the Chichimeca fought on for decades and the Maya for centuries even. Anyway, estimates for single days would be hard to piece together as the siege of Tenochtitlan lasted 3 months and many died also of privation and disease, Aztec forces were greatly diminished during Cuauhtemoc's last stand in Tlatelolco.

>>hmm i don't think so. but first day was the most bloodiest

>>67886485

not really a battle, but
in September of 1922 Turks got into Smyrna and slaughtered around 100,000 civilians in less than three days. After raping them and then raping their dead bodies again.

>>67893170
and in 1974 when Turks invaded Cyprus and slaughtered another 10,000 civilians after of course raping them and then raping their dead bodies again.
