One of the sad side effects of any conflict is the damage that usually occurs to that country's heritage-2001 and the deliberate destruction of the giant Buddhas at Bamyan or the shelling of the famous bridge at Mostar,let alone the wholesale destruction that happened in the 2nd world war (the monastary at Monte Casino etc) and other conflicts since.
On the plus side,such damage is usally rectified after the fighting has stopped.
