2	Atrocity / Pandemic	Start year	End year	Casualties (White)	Casualties (Luke)	Roser world population estimate at start year	% of world population lost	Explanations of Luke's casualty estimates

3	Atrocities (Matthew White)
4	Second World War	1939	1948	66,000,000		2283468864	2.9%
5	Chinggis Khan	1206	1227	40,000,000	37,500,000	394097632.7	9.5%	White's actual death toll estimate is 37,500,000, which he rounds off to 40 million "to avoid faking too much precision." I simply ignore White's rounding, since I do my own rounding ("to avoid faking too much precision") at the "% of world population lost" stage.
