Krig är användande av organiserat militärt våld mellan stater eller mellan folk i syfte att uppnå politiska mål. Medlen kan även vara ekonomiska, exempelvis blockad av fiendens handel, eller psykologiska. Väpnade konflikter där antalet stridsrelaterade dödsfall uppgår till minst 1 000 under ett år betraktas som krig av Uppsala Conflict Data Program. Krig som pågår mellan parter i samma land kallas ett inbördeskrig. Krigshandlingar till sjöss benämns örlog. Enligt den demokratiska fredsteorin har två demokratier aldrig gått i krig mot varandra, men flera gånger genom proxykrig.
