60,000 US soldiers died in Vietnam over a decade, with huge political and cultural ramifications in a society of 216 million (1975).
325,000 Russian soldiers have died in Ukraine in under four years, drawn from a society of 144 million (2024).
Really stress-testing authoritarian stability theory.

Indonesia’s shift to cleaner cooking fuels has greatly improved air quality and health—
In 2000, less than 10% of the population in Indonesia had access to clean cooking fuels. This is now over 90%, as the chart shows.
