War

When a man is born, he has to face a lot of difficulties in life but the worst form of it all is war. Wars have not only brought difficulties to people, but have ruined nations and civilizations.

    The first question that we ask is, “Why do we fight war?” The answers that we get are not very simple. Since the days of Ramayana and Mahabharata, there is evidence and records of wars being fought and thousands of people are getting killed. Wars have been fought for all kinds of reasons and sometimes very SILLY reasons.

    Many wars were fought because people were greedy. They wanted other people and other counties’ wealth. Among the most infamous plunderers were Genghis Khan and Timurlane. They rode across Asia plundering cities and their wealth. Others were fought to expand territories as Alexander the Great did. There have been many civil wars too. Civil wars mean two sides within a country fighting each other.
