War is the fighting of nations in an armed conflict, usually over territory or resources. War can also be the liberation of a nation under the control of a dictator by multiple other nations. Terrorism is the use of scare tactics to get a point a cross. While war usually has rules of conflict, such as the treatment of prisoners, terrorist do not follow the same rules, and often target civilians to put fear into the populace. They are usually a rebel force and are usually small in size.
