AnswerHistorians argue that after WWII "Peace broke out" largely as a result of the proliferation of nuclear weapons which gave rise to the "MAD" or mutually assured destruction among the world's super powers.
World wars were replaced by multiple low intensity conflicts such as Korea and Vietnam where client states, often second and third world countries did much of the actual fighting while the U.S. or Russia supplied strategic and tactical support.
The concern today is that a number of these smaller countries that do not align themselves with the superpowers seek or have acquired their own nuclear weapons.
After WWI the profoundly flawed Treaty of Versailles so crippled the peace for Germany that a 'rematch' (WWII) was inevitable.
When you think about it I say WW2 it was certain Germans were defeated after WW2 (if only this was accepted after WW1)Germany saw the attrocitys they had done and so they accepted defeat. True wars have happened since but there were mini wars after WW1
