Scenarios about 'Geneva Conventions'
The Geneva Conventions are a series of international treaties establishing standards for humanitarian treatment during warfare, first adopted in 1864 and significantly expanded after World War II. They provide legal protections for wounded soldiers, prisoners of war, civilians in conflict zones, and medical personnel, forming a cornerstone of international humanitarian law. In alternate history scenarios, variations in their development or enforcement often reflect different outcomes of major conflicts and changing attitudes toward wartime ethics.
