'''War''' is any protracted, large-scale, violent conflict. By extension, the word can be used for any struggle. A group of combatants and their support is called an [[UNSC Army|army]] on land, a [[UNSC Navy|navy]] at sea or in space, and [[UNSC Air Force|air force]] in the air. Wars may be prosecuted simultaneously in one or more different theaters. Within each theater, there may be one or more consecutive military campaigns. A military campaign includes not only fighting but also intelligence, troop movements, supplies, propaganda, and other components. A smaller continuous conflict is traditionally called a [[battle]], although this terminology is not always applied to conflicts involving aircraft, missiles or bombs alone, in the absence of ground troops or naval forces. | '''War''' is any protracted, large-scale, violent conflict.
