I use "Muslim", mostly because there's been a lot of negativity and discrimination surrounding Muslims in my own country, but obviously whatever works for you.

Um, two groups of men fighting each other? But for territory / political reasons, not because 'kill all men'


The men doing the killing and being killed were largely doing so because they were forced (through conscription) or societally conditioned to enlist.

No, it's not like the Holocaust, but it's an example of how men are treated as expendable.


Groups of men drafted into the army and set upon each other.
