"The LEGO Group tries to avoid anything that glorifies war, tragedy, and/or death. Ever notice that there aren't any miltary themes?"

No, they don't, and yes, there are. Granted, it's all stylized, but then, so is World of Warcraft.

I'll give a few contemporary examples.

Castle - war between living and undead
Ninjago - like Castle except with Ninjas
Bionicle, Hero Factory - they even have entire comic book series detailing the events of the wars between good and evil in these franchises
Pharaoh's Quest - The Mummy, Lego style
Star Wars - 'nuff said.

Need I continue?
