Keep in mind the great peace of the 1800s that was so boasted about ended with WW1 and WW2.

Then again, other parts of the world are just as violent (Middle East for example). Humans are humans and we will fight wars. You can't point out a specific region. Europe just gets a lot of attention because it housed 90% to 100% (depending on era) of the world powers from 1500-1950. So when they fought, it was (to quote Trump) HUGE.

People care less about wars like Paraguay fighting Argentina or Brazil (it happened) because the size and scale of the war is smaller.

There are several active wars around the globe right now including Azerbaijan fighting Armenia, Venezuela invading Guyana, border fights between China and India, etc. However, Ukraine-Russia and Palestine-Israel get all the attention.

We have a nice ocean between us
