the Crimean War
That was just the first war with photography.
Right answer is American Civil War and Franco-Prussian War.
>The Crimean War was one of the first conflicts in which military forces used modern technologies such as explosive naval shells, railways and telegraphs.[8] The war was one of the first to be documented extensively in written reports and in photographs. The war quickly became a symbol of logistical, medical and tactical failures and of mismanagement. The reaction in Britain led to a demand for professionalisation of medicine, most famously achieved by Florence Nightingale, who gained worldwide attention for pioneering modern nursing while she treated the wounded.
How were they different from the Crimean war? Because railways became a noteworthy factor?
machine guns
Didn't machine guns become a thing in the mid 1870s?
30 Years War
Jihad's 1,400 Years War
WW1
What do you mean by modern?
If it is the first war of the historical modern period, that would be the Muscovite-Lithuanian war.
Muslim-Infidel War, our Jihad ongoing.

The kind of wars we are about to see are going to be the most horrific and deadly wars in history, and the worst part is that you can get BTFO by some zoomer dropping bombs on you with an Xbox controller without ever seeing who or what killed you. There’s no honorable reason to fight wars anymore.
I think drone swarms are directed by AIs, not aspie zoomers
Goddamn it. The one job that the fatbody larpers would finally be perfect for, and it's automated.
it´s not like you could see snipers or artillery crews before they blasted your ass in conventional wars
First WW1-style horrible conflicts where tens of thousands of men get mowed down in a matter of a few weeks: cross between the Crimean and American Civil Wars
First contemporary-style war where there is no real battlefront anymore and information, propaganda, irregular movements and terrorism play as much a role as regular fighting men: Definitely Vietnam Part II
The Ukraine-Russia War
Define modern
STOP DAMN IGNORANTS you are humiliating this board !
any well informed historian would say the 1st modern war is obviously the LGTV-LGBT communities war
Civil War was the first "modern war", but the real answer is World War 1, as its tactics and ideas changed the ways we think of war
What about the Russo-Japanese war?
the US civil war if by "modern" you mean industrialized and reliant on advanced transportation such as rail and steam ship
