American military deaths during the Revolutionary War totaled around 25,000. The death toll from the War of 1812 = around 20,000. The Mexican-American War (fought about 2 decades prior to the Civil War) left around 13,000 American soldiers dead. So all together, that was less than 100,000 killed in those wars.
