I’ve always wondered this. The 7 Years war was fought on multiple continents and decided the world as we know it, just like both World Wars. I just don’t get why it wasn’t seen as a world war and I came here to ask why.

WW1 isn’t actually a “world” war. European historians just called it so and no one cared to contest.
They could also call the 7-year war a world War but they didn’t and it thus isn’t. There is no diagram or criteria that quality one as world War. It’s totally arbitrary.
