Was perusing some of the threads and this thought just popped into my head (and the fact that I am meant to be writing a presentation on plants has nothing to do with the fact that I am writing this pointless thread)
I was just wondering which was worse for starting wars (historians please chip in with knowledge whenever you want). Maybe it should be Politics, Land/Economy or Religion. What do you think is worse? For example Iraq, was that mostly politics? (e.g. evil dictator, must be stopped by democracy loving patriots), or (the more popular belief) because of land (or rather the oil in the land) or was it because of religion (they aren't christians therefore they must be thinking of fanatical takeovers). Obviously I am shamelessly generalising the entire thing, but it's just a quick example.
Anyways, back to the question, which element is responsible for the most wars? (please bear in mind all wars, eg. the Crusades, Civil wars etc.)
All thoughts appriciated (as it gives me something to read and therefore not work!)
