The twentieth century has been called, not inaccurately, a century of genocide.

520 | |a The twentieth century has been called, not inaccurately, a century of genocide. And the beginning of the twenty-first century has seen little change, with genocidal violence in Darfur, Congo, Sri Lanka, and Syria.
