This line is part of the “Military Maxims of Napoleon”, a collection of tenets on the art of war which are still an inspiration for military students. Through this line, he makes his war beliefs and tactics clear. We should also consider the meaning of civil war: it is a war which if fought between different groups of people (different in religion, political ideas, etc) of the same territory. Having this in mind we can mention for example The Napoleonic Wars (1803–1815). They consisted in a series of battles between France and other European powers, financed and usually led by the United Kingdom. Among these we can mention The Battle of Waterloo 1815, the Battle of Trafalgar 1805, etc.
I agree in the sense that inevitably whenever there is a war there are 2 groups of a different nature, sharing the territory but fighting for a reason. I also believe that the “civil war they make wherever they fight” does not necessarily imply military participation. Nowadays, we see many countries, mainly Latin American ones, in which the different economic and political conflicts (“wars”) produce a gap and a clash between different national or local groups (“civil war”).
The immediate cause of World War I that made the aforementioned items come into play (alliances, imperialism, militarism, nationalism) was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary. In June 1914, a Serbian-nationalist terrorist group called the Black Hand sent groups to assassinate the Archduke. Hope this helps, plus this was the main reason why it happened plus if you see a link other people offer for the answer don’t put it in the web, I tested it out I got a virus. Anyways hope this helps!
Answer:
A) Both have three branches of government and a constitution.
Sparta and Athens had very different governments. Sparta was a militaristic state. This means that all decisions made by the government revolved around the wants and needs of the military. This resulted in Sparta developing one of the strongest armies in the world during this era.
Athens on the other hand had a form of democracy. A democracy is when individual citizens have a say in what laws are made and what representatives there are in the government. This gave the average Athenian much more political power in comparison to Sparta.
