I have always thought this way as well. In fact, in many European countries, they don't have the "WW1/WW2" names attached to the conflicts. That seems more like a North American thing.

Even the more recent Balkan Wars of the 1990s can be traced back to pre-WW1 political issues that were unresolved and the peace agreements/punishments put in place against the countries that lost in WW1.
