| war | 1. A contest between nations or states, carried on by force, whether for defence, for revenging insults and redressing wrongs, for the extension of commerce, for the acquisition of territory, for obtaining and establishing the superiority and dominion of one over the other, or for any other purpose; armed conflict of sovereign powers; declared and open hostilities. "Men will ever distinguish war from mere bloodshed." (F. W. Robertson) As war is the contest of nations or states, it always implies that such contest is authorised by the monarch or the sovereign power of the nation. A war begun by attacking another nation, is called an offensive war, and such attack is aggressive. War undertaken to repel invasion, or the attacks of an enemy, is called defensive. 2. A condition of belligerency to be maintained by physical force. In this sense, levying war against the sovereign authority is treason. 3. Instruments of war. "His complement of stores, and total war." (Prior) 4. Forces; army. "On their embattled ranks the waves return, And overwhelm their war." (Milton) 5. The profession of arms; the art of war. "Thou art but a youth, and he is a man of war from his youth." (1 Sam. Xvii. 33) 6. A state of opposition or contest; an act of opposition; an inimical contest, act, or action; enmity; hostility.

Lv. 21) Civil war, a war between different sections or parties of the same country or nation. Holy war. See Holy. Man of war. Public war, a war between independent sovereign states.
