Lista de crimes sombrios da Europa

Criteria Throughout history several countries have committed various atrocities and heinous crimes, either against other nations or even against their own people. And this list shows what were the worst crimes that each country committed. But that can be somewhat relative. Therefore, to consider an event as the worst perpetuated by the country, it has to pass some criteria such as, the event must have heinous crimes such as mass massacres/murders, sexual violence, torture and prolonged physical/psychological suffering, etc. it has to be a large-scale event, potentially involving tens, hundreds, thousands or even millions of victims, most of whom are innocent. It is also worth noting that the event does not need to have occurred in the Perpetuating Country (For example, the Holodomor was perpetuated by Russia [Former USSR], but occurred in Ukraine). The event to be considered on this wiki, must also meet at least 2 of the criteria below: Action against Patriots: Violent action by a country or organization/governmental body against its own civilians/people. Whether because of a political or ideological agenda, there could be state terrorism, democide, even breach of public trust. And this is particularly vile since in theory the country should defend its own people. (For example, the UK Ultra government body C.I.A launched experiments against US civilians themselves) Action against Nation: Violent action by a country or organization/government body against other peoples/nations/cultures/religions. Xenophobic Sentiment: Violent action motivated by feelings of hatred or anti-nations of other cultures, such as crimes of genocide, ethnic cleansing, pogroms, and religious or ethnic persecution. It could be an act against an enemy population during an armed conflict or even oppression against a dominated population (For example, Apartheid that segregated and separated and systematically persecuted the black majority in South Africa). Dehumanization: An event where the perpetrator country denies the full humanity of others or subjects others to inhumane conditions. Lasting/Striking Effect: The event leaves visible consequences even after years. Or it causes very visible damage even for the time. Example, the Cambodian genocide that killed 25% of the population at the time. Has Widespread International/Public Condemnation: The event is widely condemned and considered one of the darkest events, but it is not a mandatory requirement if the event itself is unknown to most, such as the Circassian Genocide. And some details to clarify better and do not select events that will not be accepted. This list should only include crimes/events committed by the State or Organization/Government Body, not crimes committed by the population, unless they have acted in conjunction with the perpetuating authority. (For example, the Holocaust that Nazi Germany nazified the population to support their ideas) A tragedy occurs in a country, but the perpetrator is not the country itself or it was done by an organization [whether foreign or not] does not count (Example, March 11, 2004 which was one of the worst crimes that happened in Spain, but it was not Spain or a state that perpetuated it) A past event takes place in the territory of a current country, but the Perpetuating State that controlled the territory at the time was not its predecessor State (The Congo Free State, which despite the atrocities, who was responsible was King Leopold of Belgium The events listed are single events and therefore, periods of clusters of events do not count. this is not a single event, but several: Indian Wars, Californian Genocide and Trail of Tears) Criteria indirectly linked If a country has not carried out any heinous action/event on a large scale, then it does not have it. At least I would have collaborated or helped a nation to hold an event in another country. For example, Switzerland collaborated with the Nazis in World War II or Portugal contributed to the Atlantic slave trade. Or even neglecting a problem that led to a humanitarian tragedy, for example Colombia neglected the signs and resulted in the Armero Tragedy. Serious cases of political corruption schemes also count.
