The SVO is not the longest war Russia has fought.

The war with Ukraine has lasted longer than the Great Patriotic War (1418 days).

There have been few such prolonged wars in Russian history. Currently, the "SVO" stands between the Great Patriotic War and the Afghan War, which lasted 3340 days (or just over nine years).

The consequences of all military conflicts that lasted longer than 1418 days are in the "NeMoskva" collection.
