War can be any conflict or competition founded on divergent interests in which two or more opponents contest for achieving own objectives. This contest for conflicting interests can be as violent as a nuclear holocaust between two nuclear states or as benign as a contest between two street hawkers for getting more customers.

Let us do a critical analysis of the definition that “War is the contest of opposing wills” to find if there are corresponding shades between war and business.
