Mmm. This is...problematic too, as ascribing losses of war to the ideology of movement would mean that all the blood of 30 years war (aka "some regions of Germany lost 75% of population" just to have a taste of the horrors of World War 0) is on hands of Protestants.
I mean, "Martin Luther and Jan Hus are guilty of genocide of millions Europeans in decades of war" is an interesting hot take, but it has some problems.
If they have enough time to call up the entire able-bodied population in a Levee en Masse, the monarchists are going to be fucked, yes.Hrm? You mean that Hespanxerites are going to keep throwing bodies into the grinder until the bitter end, like Romans vs everyone else back in the day?
Well, if I just use the official number published in Russia, than there are some 13000000 confirmed deaths through death sentences and deaths in various gulags between 1918 and 1952.
These numbers cannot be argued with, and are, still, astronomic.
What happened was GM-fiat.What about estimates of not our generals though?
Our generals thought this way (actually thought we were superior) in Khan era, and look what happened.

Because primitive hand grenades don't blow up concrete walls. Because knights in steel plate with thoroughbred horses should slaughter nomad cavalry. Because fighting a guerilla war against people who live there, especially people who are better in literally all ways and have built the terrain, is an impossible proposition.
It was ridiculous, nonsensical, and you are making the barest of analogies here anyway.
What sane king would go for an open support of a revolutionary republic?Damn, really hate weighted voting when it's as major a difference as this. It only takes a small number of voters to make a choice impossible.
...is this what the peasantry feels about the nobility?
Am I a peasant now?
Viva la revolucion?
Eventually, sure. That's why I'd like to very gradually walk back our support of monarchy, especially absolutist monarchy. But doing it at this moment could cost us everything. What would happen to our state if Khem and Black Sheep decided they wanted nothing to do with us at the same moment that a pan-European coalition saw us supporting their enemies?

Sure, just after I look up IRL Ymaryn.
