I'm sorry I don't mean to be rude with the made an ass of yourself statement...

What I did mean is that you are using those words the wrong way or you don't know what they mean...

Even within the other part of the definition ''or different groups within a nation or state''.

That definition obviously includes the idea that those different aforementioned groups are warring for control of the State

Otherwise it's just a Brawl, not a ''War''

The only other context I've ever seen the word ''War'' used that's not in relation to the state is with relation to ''Gang-wars'' or ''Mafia-wars'', but again, those small organization are vying for control of a monopoly of violence over a certain area...

They may not have the legitimacy of the state, but they do emulate the behavior of the state on a microcosmic level, and that's not by accident or coincidence... They are quasi-states (Mexican drug cartels) or proto-states (ISIS)... They can extract ''taxes'' by racketeering and other forms of offering protection..

These gangs or crime syndicates are merely in competition with the State... they defy the very notion of the state holding a true monopoly of violence, as exemplified by their acts of it...

Anybody who's really looked into this, and most anarchists have to some extent, knows that the Government is just the legitimate de-facto mafia in power.
