During the eight years of warfare, nearly 1,000,000 people lost their lives.<ref>http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/NSAEBB/NSAEBB82/</ref> The Iran-Iraq War was the first since World War I to see extensive use of chemical weapons, and the first since World War II to see such an intensive campaign against non-belligerent shipping. The war bankrupted the Iraqi economy, and the massive war debt was the main reason for the attempted Iraqi annexation of [[Kuwait]] in 1990, leading to the [[Gulf War]].
