Wars in European History
About This Novel
What we are talking about here is the history of European wars, and it also shows that history can explain wars, and wars can even explain history. Since the Middle Ages, wars on the European continent seem to have never stopped. The battle of armored knights was an aristocratic way of life at that time, and the imitation of clergy by knights made it mysterious; after the princes with royal power, the independent highest authorities had mercenaries, and mercenary wars began. Religious disputes in Europe led to the struggle for wealth, which made Europeans take risks to expand overseas. Once they reached their destination, they had to conquer it by force. For a time, the words war, exploration, and trade became almost interchangeable, and this became commercial war. Professionalism and patriotism gave Europe a war with professional soldiers. Professional soldiers were different from others in terms of clothing, living habits, functions and rights. The revolutionary wars, inter-state wars and World War II that followed in Europe demonstrated tremendous national energy.
