How does power prestige principles profit and protection deal with war?
1. Power is the main reason for wars: Territorial gain, water rights, etc. Power ensures survival. 2. Prestige is the second reason for wars: More territory, more w…ater (seaports for trade), not only ensures survival but the nation enjoys a higher standard of living. The old slogan of keeping up with the Jone's...e.g. "...my car is bigger than yours..." or "...I wear expensive cloths he doesn't..." 3. Principles might be a border dispute. An honest mistake about a border line, and it cannot be resolved through diplomatic channels: so they fight over it. Strongest nation wins. 4. Profit can be associated with "Empires." When empires had colonies they gained profits from them such as: Gold, Silver, Copper, Zinc, Coal, Lumber, Iron Ores, Oil or Rubber, or any other raw material that went with industrialization. 5. Protection can tie all of the above steps together. A nation/country needs to protect it's water, territory (land), oil/raw materials, priniciples, profits, prestige, etc. (MORE)
