By means of killing、 for the purpose to destruction impose their will to each other, and that’s the war which also is conflicts of interest between both sides in the political economic、cultural beliefs, etc. On the back of the war, you will see the historical evolution of a country or a nation. China also like other countries, did not get rid of the smoke of war during the past5000years of civilization, Especially in the last one hundred years, with the opium war of1840, China’s old anti-imperialist and anti-feudal democratic revolution began its journey, then the Marco Polo bridge incident in1937which fired for the Anti-Japanese outreached, and then the People’s Republic of China founded in1949、 followed by the Korean War in1950,Until today, Diaoyu islands events still under the tense situation of China-Japan relations.
