Really the tribes wiped away by Genghis Khan will never ever get a chance to make war again. The Native Americans will never wage war again against the US, the land is now secure. None of the tribes that resisted the Islamic expansion in the Middle east will never make war again. The Carthaginians will never make war again. Can you name any of the tribes that the Egyptian Empire crushed? Even for its sort period of time Alexander the Great secured Europe and spread civilization through much of the near east and secured a future for Greece into modernity. Overwhelming aggression against your enemy means they can never make war again. History is filled with thousands of tribes and kingdoms that will never be remembered who's names are unknown only the Empires that crushed and secured there peace through violence survived for any amount of time and influenced world history.
