Civilians Lost: Austria-Hungary's Wwi Death Toll

The First World War was a devastating conflict that resulted in the deaths of millions of people, including civilians in Austria-Hungary. The civilian death toll in this region is estimated to be around 465,000, with 351,000 from Austria, 82,000 from Hungary, and 32,000 from Bosnia. This figure includes deaths from famine, disease, and military operations. The Spanish flu pandemic, which struck during the last three months of 1918, also contributed significantly to the civilian death toll, doubling the number of deaths in Austria-Hungary during that period.

Civilian deaths in Austria-Hungary were estimated at 465,000, with 351,000 from Austria, 82,000 from Hungary and 32,000 from Bosnia

Civilian deaths in Austria-Hungary during World War One were estimated at 465,000. This figure includes 351,000 from Austria, 82,000 from Hungary, and 32,000 from Bosnia.

These figures represent indirect war deaths, including deaths from famine and disease. The total number of civilian dead in Austria-Hungary due to famine and disease was 400,000, with an additional 120,000 killed in military operations and 30,000 dead in Austri.

The high number of civilian deaths in Austria-Hungary can be attributed to various factors, including the mobilisation of a large number of men, with over one million dying during the war. This resulted in a higher death rate in Hungarian areas, with twenty-eight deaths per thousand persons. The Spanish flu also contributed to the high number of civilian deaths, doubling the number of deaths during the last three months of 1918.

The Spanish flu doubled the number of deaths in Austria-Hungary during the last three months of 1918

It is estimated that there were 465,000 civilian deaths in Austria-Hungary during World War One. This figure includes 351,000 from Austria, 82,000 from Hungary, and 32,000 from Bosnia. The Spanish flu doubled the number of deaths in Austria-Hungary during the last three months of 1918.

During the last quarter of 1918, about 50,000 people died above the average of the preceding quarters. This was an increase of 113%. The Spanish flu was responsible for a large number of these deaths. In addition to the flu, there was an increase in pneumonia (+10,000) and other infections (+15,000). The total number of civilian deaths in Austria-Hungary during World War One was likely much higher than the estimated 465,000 due to the Spanish flu and other factors.

The civilian death toll in Austria-Hungary during World War One was also impacted by famine and disease. It is estimated that 400,000 civilians died from famine and disease, 120,000 were killed in military operations, and 30,000 died in Austria. The total dead, including military losses, was 996,000. Of these, 80,000 were with the Austro-Hungarian forces, 260,000 with the Serbian forces, 13,000 with Montenegrin forces, and 93,000 POW deaths in captivity.

The high number of civilian deaths in Austria-Hungary during World War One can be attributed to several factors, including the Spanish flu, pneumonia, other infections, famine, and disease. The war also had a significant impact on the civilian population, with over 2.2 million men mobilized from Austria-Hungary, and more than one million dying during the course of the war. The loss ratio in Hungary was higher than any other nation of Austria-Hungary.

100% of civilian deaths in 1914 were in the area of the later Republic of Austria

In the area of the later Republic of Austria, 90,000 civilians died, which was 100% of all civilian deaths in 1914. This was due to famine and disease, as well as military operations. The total number of civilian deaths in Austria-Hungary during World War I is estimated to be 465,000, with 351,000 from Austria, 82,000 from Hungary, and 32,000 from Bosnia.

The high number of civilian deaths in the area of the later Republic of Austria can be attributed to several factors. Firstly, the war caused disruptions in food supply and led to famine, which resulted in a significant number of deaths. Additionally, diseases such as pneumonia and other infections also contributed to the high death toll. It is important to note that the civilian death toll in Austria-Hungary was not limited to direct casualties of military operations but also included indirect war deaths.

The death rate of babies in the area of the later Republic of Austria was also a significant factor. If we assume a similar death rate of babies in Bohemia, Moravia, and Silesia as in the area of the Austrian Republic, these lands had 80,000 civilian deaths above average, which accounted for 60% of the deaths in 1914. This suggests that the high number of civilian deaths in the area of the later Republic of Austria was not only due to the war but also to other factors such as disease and poverty.

During the last quarter of 1918, about 50,000 persons died above the average of the preceding quarters, an increase of 113%. This was partly due to the Spanish flu, which approximately doubled the deaths during the last three months of the year. The high number of civilian deaths in the area of the later Republic of Austria highlights the devastating impact of World War I on the civilian population and the indirect consequences of the conflict.

80,000 civilian deaths were recorded in Bohemia, Moravia, and Silesia

It is estimated that 80,000 civilian deaths were recorded in Bohemia, Moravia, and Silesia during World War I. This figure is based on the assumption that these lands had a similar death rate of babies as the area of the Austrian Republic, which had 90,000 civilian deaths or 100% of all civilian deaths in 1914. The total number of civilian deaths in Austria-Hungary during the war is estimated to be around 465,000, with 351,000 from Austria, 82,000 from Hungary, and 32,000 from Bosnia. These numbers do not include the deaths of soldiers, which were significant, with over one million men from Austria-Hungary dying during the war. The high number of civilian deaths can be attributed to various factors, including famine, disease, and military operations. For example, the Spanish flu approximately doubled the deaths during the last three months of 1918 in Austria-Hungary.

Hungary's loss ratio was higher than any other nation of Austria-Hungary

There are a few possible reasons for this. Firstly, Hungary was more of an agricultural country, where it is easier to mobilize forces, rather than from more industrialized territories (such as Bohemia). Secondly, Hungarian soldiers were considered to be more trustworthy and disciplined than soldiers from other ethnic groups.

In addition to military deaths, there were also a significant number of civilian deaths in Hungary during World War One. One source estimates that about 70,000 civilians died above the average for the year in Hungary until September 1918. Another source estimates that there were 82,000 civilian deaths in Hungary during the war. This number includes deaths from famine and disease, as well as those killed in military operations.
