Those who do not know their history, are condemned to repeat it. I suggest you start with the Treaty of Versailles, which ended WWII, and then read about the economic and geopolitical conditions which lead to the rise of right wing authoritarianism throughout the world, and to Hilter's attempt to take over the world, with his Axis Alliance of Germany, Italy, and Japan.
Then look at what WWII cost the "global economy", to rebuild France, Germany, Italy, Poland. Look at the millions killed in Stalin's atroocities, and millions more who died in the rise of Communism in China.
Look at the millions of people lost - over 15 million military personnel killed, and more than 38 million civilians killed. The history of European civilization is the periodic attempts of some madman trying to take over the continent. We have Napoleon. Hitler, Stalin, and now Putin. The 60 years of peace in Europe which ended in 2012 when Putin invaded the Crimea, is the longest period in written history when there have been no wars in Europe.
Then get back to us, about how the most important thing happening in the Ukraine, here is the cost to the global economy, and boo hoo about the inflation it's causing.
