Explanation:

- The sentence is discussing the nature of earlier wars compared to the one that started in 1914. It highlights that civilian populations were generally not part of the conflict in those earlier wars.

- Let's evaluate the options to fill in the blank:

1. Option 1: generally

- This suggests that, as a rule, civilian populations were not involved.

- Correct Answer: It aligns with the context indicating most civilians were not part of the warfare.

2. Option 2: broadly

- Implies a wide scope but may not strictly convey the same sense of frequency or common occurrence needed here.

3. Option 3: chiefly

- Suggests mainly or primarily, but may imply involvement in a different sense than intended.

4. Option 4: finally

- Indicates a conclusion or end, which does not fit this context.
