792334 Number of new conflicts - Hostility_level: War conflicts The number of new interstate conflicts where the use of force causes at least 1,000 combatant deaths due to fighting during the year. A new interstate conflict is a disagreement between states where force is threatened, displayed, or used for the first time. We only count a conflict as new when the conflict overall started that year, not if it restarted or changed its hostility level (i.e. escalated or deescalated). We count a conflict as new in a region even if the conflict started earlier or at the same time in another region. The sum across all regions can therefore be higher than the total number of new conflicts. The hostility level for a conflict overall is the highest level across all world regions. 2023-08-17 15:22:14 2024-04-08 12:14:22     1816-2014 6192 28732
