The metric used in the war was, Death.

The territory was either won or lost. The influence of geopolitics increased or decreased. The amount of treasure accumulated or the resources depleted.

The Eastern Ukraine war started in the year 2014.
Between 2014 and starting 2022, had claimed the lives of more than 14,000. For eight years, Ukrainian government forces battled Russian-backed separatists to control most of the heavily developed regions, Donetsk and Luhansk also referred to as Donbas. The ferocious battles of 2014-2015 concluded with only one-third of the territory, which is its most urbanised area, being controlled by two Russian statelets that were proxies known as the self-described Donetsk the Luhansk People’s Republikas.
In September and February, Russia, Ukraine, France and Germany agreed to several versions of the known Minsk agreements that eventually ended troops’ advance and significantly reduced fighting. However, the contracts were not executed, and the conflict turned into trench warfare, with around 75,000 soldiers fighting along a 420-kilometre front line that cut through populous regions. The war destroyed the region’s industrial and economic development, forced millions of people to relocate, and transformed the zone of conflict into one of the most mine-ridden areas.
