If you ever watch a war movie, you might see a scene where a prisoner of war evokes the Geneva convention to their captors.
But what exactly is the Geneva Convention, and what does it say? Why did countries sign a treaty covering ethics in war, of all things? Who is and isn’t covered by the Geneva Convention, and what happened to prisoners of war before the Geneva Convention?
…and what happens if a belligerent party doesn’t honor the Geneva Convention?
Learn more about Prisoners of War and the Geneva Conventions on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
