Discussion
A war, which involves many participants, multiple major powers to conquer and occupy enemy territory. Decision makers utilize all available weapons of warfare and target both civilian and military sites. What kind of war is this ?
Answer: D
This is a general war.
A general war is fought between major powers with many participants, aims at the defeat and occupation of the enemy, and uses all available weapons against both military and civilian targets. The two World Wars are the standard examples, and a general nuclear war would be the extreme case.
A limited war restricts its aims, its area or its weapons, as in Korea or Kargil. A civil war is fought within one state, and an asymmetric war is between sides of very unequal strength using different methods, neither of which matches the description.
