I have to agree with you.
Growing up in NZ on ANZAC day, all you heard about was the vast number of casualties from both NZ and Aus, from that little contretemps. Nothing was ever mentioned about other countries, who also had troops involved and the casualties that they sustained.
Certainly, on a per head of population basis, NZ and Aus casualties were relatively high, but on a basis of the number of dead and wounded from all participants, the numbers were quite low.
It was only in fairly recent years that I have read about the numbers of deaths of other countries, these figures have always been played down, certainly in NZ and I would say Aus as well. I think that it suits the politicians to give the impression that NZ/Aus troops were the only ones involved.
The casualty rates of the Brits, Indians and I believe the French as well, run into the 10s of thousands. Those figures are not bandied about here.
When all said and done, it makes our casualty rates pale into insignificance.
