There are many factors that go into warfare. There is the leadership of an individual with the power to make or break a military strategy or tactic. Public opinion can heavily influence the support or opposite of the people behind a war. Technology is always advancing and becomes more and more devastating as time progresses. Logistics is important to carry people, equipment and vehicles from one place to another, supplying reinforcements where required.

Strategic Studies What were Clausewitz’s most important and/or enduring contributions to the theory of warfare? Clausewitz’s intended On War to be a practical military philosophy, for a commander, on ideas about strategy to help him understand war and to successfully achieve his purpose in war (Bassford, P11). Some of the theories and strategies he presented in On War are both important and enduring contributions to the theory of warfare and made him a leading figure in the pantheon of strategic thinkers. Clausewitz applied scientific methodology to analysing strategy in a systematic fashion as he believed that the purpose of theory is not to uncover fixed laws or principles, but rather to educate the mind. Of all the ideas and theories Clausewitz presented in On War, my belief is that the most important and enduring elements are his idea that war is an extension of policy, his analysis of strategy, the trinity theory and his explanation of the components of war including friction in war, the fog of war and his centre of gravity theory.
Essay topic: is there such a thing as strategic culture? Introduction: Traditionally the term “strategy” has been used to define how, in the pursuit of a particular interest, the military power is used. In particular, until the Cold War, the study of strategy was finalised only to the understanding of military events, typically battles, and the evolution of military technology, in order to provide the armed forces with tactical manuals. The advent of the nuclear weapons and the Cold War changed the way in which strategy was conceived and studied. Accepting the immense power of destruction of a nuclear weapon it was immediately clear, at least in the western world, that a nuclear war could not have a winner.
David Osborn HIST 202 Principles of War Professor Howard J. Fuller Research Essay 2 The use of asymmetric, or irregular, warfare by our adversaries has changed how we fight on today’s modern battlefield and helped to redefine our doctrine. The MacMillian Dictionary defines asymmetric warfare as: Acts of war against countries and ordinary people by individuals or groups who are not part of a country's army. A more globally accepted definition is: War between belligerents whose relative power differs significantly, or whose strategy or tactics differ significantly. This type of warfare, all though not new, has caused Commanders and doctrine writers alike to look for new Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTP) in which to engage this enemy; for their tactics are increasingly unpredictable and irregular. “Future adversaries are more likely to pose irregular threats.” Many tacticians and strategist alike long for the days of a battlefield that was understandable and had symmetry as to the conduct of warfare.
key causes of war: Depending on which conflict that is being referred to the key causes of war are many and very broad. The key causes that are put foward include the theory of Structuralism which refers to the changing in the distribution of power within the global system as the primary factor in determining a states behavior. Enduring rivalries which is prolonged competition between great powers or other pairs of countries whos conflicting interests often lead to war. Balance of power which explains the tendency of opposed coalitions to be formed so the distribution of military power is balanced to prevent one single power from dominating others. Rational choice is the theory that decison makers choose on the basis of what is best for themselves and their states.
