National Liberation War

A National Liberation War is a conflict where a group seeks to achieve independence from colonial or oppressive rule, often aiming to establish a sovereign state. These wars typically involve a populace fighting against foreign occupiers or a ruling government perceived as illegitimate. The goal is to liberate the nation and assert self-determination, often accompanied by nationalist sentiments. Examples include the Algerian War of Independence against France and the Vietnam War against U.S. involvement. Such wars can have significant social, political, and economic impacts on the nations involved and may influence global dynamics as well.
