So why is the Crimean war not considered the first World War?

so why is the Crimean war not considered the first World War?

Small scope

Because that's retarded, if anything is going to be considered the the "real" First World War it would be the 7 Years War

>crimea is the world
?

No Germany, no World War

What makes it global? They only fought in the Crimea, Black Sea and Baltic

>Britain, France ,Ottoman Empire, Sardinia and Russia.
That was a lot of the relevant world at the time.

Probably even earlier than that, when James II was overthrown in the Perfidious Albonian, it caused violent conflict in the New World and elsewhere.

>Britain, France ,Ottoman Empire, Sardinia and Russia.
>relevant

faggot

>Sardinia
>relevant
They sent like 20,000 guys, it was just to suck Frances dick a bit

many wars involved major countries, doesn't make it a world war

Sardinia is the only one that isn't very relevant. Can you really say that Britain, France, Ottoman Empire, and Russia were not very relevant in the 19th century?

I'm not the same guy, but I'd say the Ottomans were fast losing their relevancy

Ww1 was over Serbia and AH, respectively irrelevant and losing their relevancy.

Because it wasn't the Seven Years War

it took months to reach Sardinia, even in the 19th century

Sardinia was strategically important because it would take any of its enemies years to get there.

russian expansionist war into crumbling ottoman empire hardly constitutes a global or world war hahhh

Because there is no reason, wars involving several major nations were common, might as well call the first crusade a world war

Because WW1 had Africa involved

because it didnt involve the WORLD you brainlet
>pic relate is you

Aren't you glad you asked?

>thinking you can travel the vast distances to Sardinia in mere months

It only takes years if you travel from Siciliy because you need to go through the Bermuda Triangle
