War is typically defined as a conflict involving the use of force, which often includes weapons. However, it is possible to have conflicts or disagreements that are resolved without resorting to armed combat. Diplomacy, negotiations, economic measures, and international institutions can all be used to address disputes and avoid the use of weapons in resolving conflicts.
