1, disaster, this is a tragic word, it describes the tragedy of a family being killed for some reason. In the history of China, there are many stories about extinction. For example, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement, the Taiping Army led by Hong Xiuquan invaded Nanjing, and most government officials and their families were killed, which was also a disaster.

2. In western history, extinction is not uncommon. For example, during World War II, Jews were massacred on a large scale in Europe and many families were killed, which was a catastrophe.

The origin of disaster.

1, the word "war of annihilation" originated from the historical events in ancient China. In ancient China, for various reasons, sometimes an entire family was killed, which was called "extinction". This catastrophic event has been widely recorded and described in history and literary works.

2. There are descriptions of extinction in China's ancient literary works. For example, in Water Margin, Song Jiang was chased by Yan Poxi's husband Classical for killing Yan Poxi, and finally Classical killed Song Jiang's family, which was a disaster. Another example is in A Dream of Red Mansions, where Jia Mu died because of the bankruptcy of Jia Fu, and the people in Jia Fu were scattered, which can be regarded as a disaster.

In modern times, the word annihilation is also widely used to describe an extremely tragic disaster. For example, during World War II, Jews were massacred on a large scale in Europe and many families were killed, which was a catastrophe. Another example is that in the political struggle in the United States, sometimes a family will be killed for political reasons, which can also be called a disaster.
