Heka41; Pearl Harbor Killed less than 3000 but the war in the Pacific killed millions. The Arch Duke who was assassinated before WW1 was just one guy and 12 million died because of it. The list of minor/ small events that lead to much larger ones, runs throughout history. 1 small rock starts a rockslide.

The point is that the event itself is meerly a trigger, the strain for a much larger war was allready there, it just needed something to set it off.
