Disclaimer

Please read this disclaimer before using WAR ATLAS. It explains the limits of what this site offers, and what we are — and are not — responsible for.

Educational purpose

WAR ATLAS is an educational history magazine. Our articles are written to help readers understand the First and Second World Wars. They are general information, not professional advice of any kind — not legal advice, medical advice, financial advice, or advice about visiting a place.

Accuracy and its limits

We research every article from verifiable sources, and we list those sources at the end of each article. Where sources disagree, we say so, and we give disputed figures as ranges. But history is a subject in which the record is incomplete, sources conflict, and new evidence can change what is known. We therefore cannot guarantee that every statement on the site is complete or free of error.

If you find a mistake, please tell us — see our Contact page. Confirmed errors are corrected openly, as described in our Editorial Policy. We welcome corrections; they make the site better.

Illustrations are not photographs

All illustrations on this site are generated by artificial intelligence in a realistic documentary style. They are illustrations, not real historical photographs. No illustration on this site should be taken as a photograph of the event, person or place it depicts, and no illustration should be used as evidence that an event happened in the way shown.

External links

Our articles link to external websites — archives, museums, libraries and other sources — for reference. We do not control those sites, and we are not responsible for their content, their accuracy, their availability, or their privacy practices. A link does not mean we endorse the linked site.

War, sensitively handled

This site is about war. Its articles describe battles, deaths, destruction and crimes, including war crimes, because that is part of the history. The content is documentary and educational: it is meant to inform, not to glorify war, not to shock, and not to promote hatred of any people. We write about all sides to the same factual standard, and we do not use graphic imagery.

Some pages deal with subjects that readers may find distressing, such as the Holocaust and other mass suffering. We write about these subjects with care and respect, and we do not show advertising on memorial and sensitive pages.

Liability

To the extent permitted by law, WAR ATLAS is not liable for any loss or damage arising from the use of, or reliance on, the content of this site — including decisions made on the basis of an article, travel to a site described in an article, or use of information from a linked external site. If you need professional advice, please consult a qualified professional.
