   I once did an small analysis of how many people died in war per capita, and   
   deaths per 100,000 population have actually gone down with each passing   
   century (only went back to the 1700s though).  So the "intelligence" might be   
   lacking, but they are being    
   more circumspect... not a lot of intelligence required to want to force your   
   will on someone else, usually just to prevent it being forced.
