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.
