That doesn't come as a surprise, but looking into The Holocaust, you can see lots of parallels from there and in AoT as well. I find it genuinely interesting to see how Isayama incorporated them into the story. In fact, I'm sure that we can write entire paragraphs based on an analysis on both genocides in comparison to the story just based on the motivations for war that took place in AoT.

Edit: Yeah, those details of eight kingdoms... Hats off to you, Isayama... I'll add a short summary to the Trivia of Marley or Paradis. I love to find these parallelisms. :P Um, pardon my ignorance, but what is the eight kingdoms parallel here?

Eight of the nine Titan houses that possessed Shifters were fighting amongst each other for generations while the Fritz family used the Progenitor Titan to maintain order in Eldia.
