The Atrocities of Unit 731

The number of military and civilian fatalities caused by World War II is estimated to be between 50 to 56 million people, with an additional 19 to 28 million deaths being caused by war related disease and famine. Out of all the areas that this war was fought, none were active as long as the area called the Pacific Theatre. The constant war in this area triggered a civil war and famine that is estimated to have killed more people that currently live in the countries of Canada and Australia combined. There were countless atrocities that occurred during this time, and some of the worst were caused by the operations of Unit 731.
