Humans have been making war since the dawn of civilization. Throughout history wars have been fought for many reasons often related to gaining power resources and land. Some of the most common reasons why humans make war are:

  • Religion: Many wars have been fought due to religious differences and conflicts. For example the Crusades were fought between Christians and Muslims over control of the Holy Land.
  • Politics: Nations often go to war in order to gain power influence and resources. In the past this has been done to gain control of colonies to expand a nations borders or to protect trade routes.
  • Identity: Nations often go to war in order to protect their culture values and way of life. This is particularly true for smaller nations that are surrounded by larger more powerful ones.
  • Revenge: Wars are often fought in retaliation for an attack or perceived injustice. This can be seen in the wars that were fought between the United States and other nations in response to the September 11th attacks.

Ultimately humans make war for a variety of reasons many of which are related to the desire for power resources and control. It is a tragic part of our human history and one that will likely continue unless we can find a way to peacefully resolve our conflicts.
