Non-natural death in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries
Non-natural death in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries describes death from causes which are human-made (artificial), or as a result of human acts and action, in the periods twentieth and twenty first centuries, and details numbers of deaths, either for a one year period, or for a period in history, in which the causes of death are by human only; either by things humans make, or behaviours of humans, not by disease or natural disaster. Some figures are approximate due to rounding up or down of official or calculated figures.
The periods twentieth and twenty first centuries are described as belonging to the period known as contemporary history,[1] after the earliest conceptualization of the periods in history, was made by the Institute of Contemporary History, based in the Netherlands during the 1930s.[2]
Figures for the years indicated within headings indicate statistical data for those years, statistics are included for years where statistics are made available in media sources or by governmental agencies.
