Classical Warfare

Classical warfare refers to the style of combat practiced by ancient civilizations such as Greece, Rome, and Persia, primarily involving organized armies fighting with infantry, cavalry, and early artillery. It focused on direct engagement on the battlefield, often with well-trained soldiers and strategic formations like phalanxes or legions. Warfare was typically conducted for territorial expansion, political power, or defense, with battles sometimes determined by tactics, discipline, and terrain rather than technology alone. While less advanced than modern warfare, classical battles were complex social and political events with significant cultural importance and influence on future military strategies.
