They've copied that entire page from Wikipedia.
btw, they should update it. On Wikipedia I've changed " 1994 - Zapatista Revolution in Mexico" into "1994 - Zapatista Rebellion in Mexico (the fighting has already ended)." When it's not succesfull you don't call it a revolution, and although the conflict is ongoing the fighting has ended (or hasn't it?) |

More like... well, war. War sucks, I think calling it sport is too flowery a word. War is like flatulence, it may be natural, but it still stinks. Hmm, the first part should read "Wars in Western History" Edited by TMPikachu |
