Which army was proportionally the most lethal in World War II?

[Failzero]

They operated from Alaska to India and from Russia to Australia

The Japs killed more Civilians in Singapore than the Finns killed civilians in the
The Entire War

 

[Litwin]

The Fins killed less than 100 Thousand Russian Civilians

Post your statistics here. The Finns were fighting military personnel, not civilians. We’re talking about kill-rate statistics for military personnel, not kill-rate statistics for civilians

PS

 

[Litwin]

Finland has a strong argument. However, on a proportional basis, the USAAC wins out.
On a proportional basis this wins:

We’re talking about kill-rate statistics for military personnel, not kill-rate statistics for civilians. PS We also have to admit, that Mongol - Moscow imperialists suck at war, and their despotic khans dont'n care about losses. I think it was little bit harder to fight against Germans which had good army. In Lapland war against Germans I think Finnish's losses were quite same as Germans.

In WWII whats the difference? Also Hiroshima and Nagasaki were military targets.

[Failzero]

are you sure ?

Yes British Troops ( Almost 500 of them were there fighting with the Finns then the Finns saddled up with The Germans and the Brits were On their own in Finland ) many were Captured or Shot and most had to ditch their Uniforms & gear and if lucky they made it to Sweden and escaped as Civilians

"Yes British Troops ( Almost 500 of them were there fighting with the Finns then the Finns saddled up with The Germans and the Brits were On their own in Finland"

so I have asked you about the links do you have them or you dont ?

Winston Churchill held the Finnish people in high regard, especially during the Winter War of 1939–1940, when Finland bravely resisted Bolshevik, imperial invasion. While Churchill didn’t make many public statements specifically about Finland, one of his most famous quotes captures his admiration:

“Finland alone—in danger of death—shows what free men can do.”

This quote was delivered in a speech to the House of Commons in January 1940, and it reflects Churchill’s deep respect for the Finnish spirit and their fierce defense of sovereignty against overwhelming odds.

Churchill saw the Finns as a symbol of courage and resilience—qualities he valued immensely. Their stand against the Bolshevik predatory empire resonated with his own views on defiance and the importance of fighting for freedom, even when the odds are grim.

a solid point, still, We’re talking about kill-rate statistics for military personnel

White Death: The World’s Deadliest Sniper ​

Bolshevik imperialists : “We'll be invading Finland”
Häyha: “Reality can be disappointing”

Greece perhaps? Finland? Netherlands? Im judging this based on the fight within not technological dominance. All were small nation The Greeks were out manned and outweaponed but Italy couldn't conquer them they might be my pick.

One thing the Finns themselves often forget about the Continuation War, is that it was in many ways even more successful than the Winter War. For example, the end of the Continuation War: While Germany was unable to repel any major attacks from the soviet onslaught in 1944, the soviets concentrated an even larger force onto the Finns than they had during the Winter war. After initial success, despot Stalin informed Finland that they would not accept an negotiated peace - only total surrender. Finland then miraculously stopped the Bolshevik IMPERIALISTIC onslaught especially at the battle of Tali-ihantala - the largest battle in Nordic countries history while heavily outnumbered. The frontlines remained at a stalemate for over two months after this until peace. Then DESPOT Stalin realized that he would lose the race to Berlin with the Allies if he continued expend his forces to Finland and agreed to a peace treaty and Finnish independence. Finland had taken relatively little losses during the 1944 battles while dealing massive losses to Bolshevik EMPIRE and Finland ended the war with pretty much the most trained soldiers and military supplies she had ever had. None of the main Finnish defensive lines had been breached at the end of the Continuation war unlike the Winter war. An underrated achievement. (Also the 1944 battles happened mostly in summer, when its harder to defend than in winter.)

Was The Finnish Army The Most Lethal Of World War 2? ​

 

[Litwin]

The Finns agreed to the Soviet demands, and continued to abide by them until the Soviet Union collapsed.

Allies, 1939: "We are going to war because we can't allow a foreign power to invade and occupy Poland."
Allies, 1944: "We can allow a foreign power to invade and occupy Poland."

Poland Lost, Finland Survived​

After WWII, Polish empire was occupied by the Bolshevik empire , lost its sovereignty, and became a communist state. Its democracy was dismantled, and its army was absorbed into the Bolshevik empire´s world.

Finland, though it ceded territory to the Bolshevik empire, avoided occupation. It kept its independence, democratic institutions, and military. By skillful diplomacy and fierce resistance, Finland stayed free while Poland was subjugated.

A Bolshevik era joke springs to mind.
A customs official to a Bolshevik slave crossing a border:- Occupation?
- No, no! Just visiting.

And they had support staff and liaison / interpreters which almost doubled their numbers thus my up to 500 personnel

They lost.

They did not lose.

It was a stalemate, and once the soviets did not get the fast and easy victory that they expected, they entered negotiations as there were other areas they wanted which they could get with less effort.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Well using that logic Hitler restored peace in Europe when he occupied it, behave yourself.

A textbook example of a fallacy of false equivalency.

They lost their border region as a result of those negotiations. That means they lost.

STILL, according 1945 standards , Enola Gay did noting wrong
