Is the country a product of war?
War is the product of human society. Without military organizations, it is easy to be destroyed by other * * * identities. The influence of ancient wars on political power is various, but few domestic scholars have studied it. In recent years, the academic discussion on the relationship between war and politics mainly focuses on the influence of war on the origin of the country.

War promotes the formation of a country, especially in a civilized society based on agriculture, which can promote the integration of social forces, such as the unified defense of residential areas, the enhancement of cohesion of primitive social organizations, the expansion of vested interests, the development of internal power and the promotion of religious functions. He did not regard war and the formation of the country as an inevitable causal relationship, but believed that the country was formed under the joint action of sacrifice, war, public affairs and other factors. Li Xueqin believes that the formation of kingship is related to war. The change from clan system to hereditary kingship is closely related to the war in the era of the Five Emperors. Although the formation of kingship is based on "the development of social economy leads to social differentiation, and social organizations break through clan boundaries and form an increasingly large social identity", "the way in which it came into being is directly related to war". Xie Weiyang believes that the existence of the war of conquest is inevitably related to the early national autocratic politics and democratic politics. One of the characteristics of the early state formation model of tribal alliance transformed into a country is that the armed conflict with external political entities "hardly occupies any position", while the chieftaincy society "is closer to the national level, the more important it is to conquer". "The relationship between the formation and development of chieftaincy and the early state transformed from chieftaincy and the conquest and annexation constitutes a major feature of the chieftaincy state formation model". Yi Jianping believes that the conflict with external political entities and the use of force played an important role in the tribal alliance model formed by the early state, and the war of conquest and annexation did not lead to the occurrence and development of Xie Weiyang's autocratic politics. There are some important works about the relationship between war and political power in foreign academic circles. Macher Mann discussed the evolution of ancient social power from the perspective of sociology, which involved the relationship between war and social power. Stanislav Andrewski's monograph focuses on military organizations and society, but hardly touches on the relationship between ancient wars and government evolution. The Selected Works edited by La Froebe and Rosenstand is an important achievement, but they admit that "the interactive relationship between the military development of Greece and Rome and its social, cultural, political and economic relations has not been systematically compared and studied, which is a defect that we are all confused about" (1 1). In addition, some monographs dealing with the relationship between regional wars and ancient society or politics (12) also appeared in the late 1990s.
