I think the most successful "terror campaigns" in history were the sacking of Baghdad by Hulagu Khan in 1258, and Hadrian's march on Judea . The Mongols who having just defeated the Abbasid Caliphate's main army gave customary warning for the city of Baghdad to surrender or face destruction. The Abbasid's resisted and the subsequent siege lasted 13 days. Once the walls were taken only the Christians were spared because Hugalu Khan's mother was herself a Christian. In the end roughly 800,000 to 1 million inhabitants died by sword, spear, arrow, and club. The Abbasid leader Al-Musta'sim was thrown into his treasury where he could ,"dine on his riches for sustenance." the majority neighboring cities and kingdoms surrendered after that. As for Judea, Roman Emperor Hadrian ordered General Sextus Julius from Britain to lead 12 Legions into Judea to crush the Bar Kokhba revolt(132-136CE). Roughly half the Jews of Judea(400,000) were killed, or enslaved and scattered all over the Roman empire. This is actually how Jewish diaspora truly began in Europe. The remaining Jews who did not revolt were banished from Jerusalem as a people by Hadrian. Both of these situations are the only two i can think of in history, hope that helps Chris! Also please do a tour of the Red river Campaign region!
