Massive galactic empires make peace and war, destroying trillions with weapons of unfathomable power
This is an underestimate. The oft-cited number for the cell count of a human body is 37 trillion, so it’s enough to kill ~30 to get into the quadrillion range. The global yearly war death count is in the low hundreds of thousands, say 200,000, which gives us 200,000×37 trillion=7400,000 trillion=7,400 quadrillion=7.4 quintillion=.
