Well a "war" is defined by an "open and declared armed hostile conflict between states or nations" it generally includes armed assault.  That said, WWII was a "war" b/c nations declared there be a state of hostility among themselves...the countries approached an impasse and used political pressures and militant power to try and resolve it.  \n\n\nSo, a list??  Let me try and generalize "war" in bullet-form.\n\n- Disagreement b/w one or more nations \n- Governments DECLARED OPENLY that there be a dynamic b/w the nations which includes forcefully trying to "get what they want."\n- Force in WWII included blockades, the killing of both soldiers and civilians, invading foreign territories to reach strategic targets to be destroyed, looting, raping, torture, etc. (no country is exempt from this laundry list of behaviors, some countries more guilty of certain ones than others, I won't name names).  \n\nHope my answer helped - if you need more let me know and I'll see what I can do.

The First World War, or (before 1939) the Great War, was a world conflict lasting from August 1914 to the final Armistice on November 11, 1918. The Allied Powers (led by the United Kingdom, France and until 1917 Russia, and, after 1917, the United States) defeated the Central Powers (led by the German Empire, Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire). The war caused the collapse of four empires and a radical change in the map of Europe and the Middle East.
