1000 combat deaths between two parties subject to common political jurisdiction at the start, with at least 5% of the deaths on each side.

As long as they keep a stiff upper lip throughout it.

bought Ṁ1,000 NO

Haha! I dunno, Elon Musk is usually such a font of analytic wisdom on international politics!

How about the definition now?

I wouldn't have bought YES with this description :( better to change the title and/or make a new question than to change resolution criteria on an existing one, imo

I tipped you 100M if anyone else feels hard done by, comment here and I'll tip.

Arg damn. I bet based on the title assuming the description would match and then it didn't. Mostly on me for not reading the description, but also a little bit on the market creator I think.

Have changed the description and am happy to refund anyone who bet before then

Title is sensationalized, 100 deaths is not equivalent to a civil war

How about now?

bought Ṁ50 YES

If we're defining "civil war" that loosely then sure, I'll buy "yes" at 3%

bought Ṁ50 YES

On the arrests metric, the Guardian is reporting 250 this weekend

I think that Civil War in the UK is very unlikely.

your definition does not match the title. @NathanpmYoung

bought Ṁ100 YES

Yea but 1,000 arrests and 100 deaths is like Chicago on a weekend.
