Don't forget https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiping_Rebellion :
"The [Taiping Rebellion] [...] ranks as one of the bloodiest wars in human history, the bloodiest civil war, and the largest conflict of the nineteenth century with estimates of war dead ranging from 20 to 70 million dead, as well as millions more displaced."
