Warring States Policy

The Warring States Policy refers to the strategic approach used by the Warring States period in Chinese history (approx. 475–221 BCE), characterized by constant warfare among rival states vying for dominance. This policy involved alliances, military innovation, and diplomatic maneuvering to outmaneuver opponents. Governments focused on strengthening their armies, developing new tactics, and engaging in negotiations or betrayals to gain advantages. Essentially, it was a period of intense conflict driven by competition for power, requiring adaptable strategies to survive and expand in a fragmented political landscape.
