War shall be waged solely for the preservation of the persons and property of `WS`'s residents and territory, and no further. Wars of outrage over immoral actions taken by other polities shall not be the concern of `WS`. `WS` shall have no openly declared military alliances - all military alliances shall be phrased as `casus belli` assets under `WS`'s protection.
Any war must be on the basis of a casus belli, and should the enemy actor cease to violate the casus belli, the war shall be brought to a graceful end as speedily as is humanly possible. The aim of war shall be the protection of a casus belli asset, and/or the elimination/exhaustion of an entity's ability to pose a threat to some number of casus belli assets.

#### The aim of war:
The aim of war shall be the protection of a casus belli asset, and/or the elimination/exhaustion of an entity's ability to pose a threat to some number of casus belli assets.
#### Selecting war plans/strategies:
When choosing strategies and plans for war, the strategies must pass through several filters in descending order of priority (i.e, highest priority filters first):
* The strategies which are projected to result in the least casualties and injuries to `WS` residents and agents shall be prioritized. And, from among these strategies:
* Those strategies which are also projected to result in the least casualties to the **non-military agents and contractees** of the enemy entity shall be prioritized. And, from among these strategies:
* Those strategies which are projected to bring about the aim of the war (as [defined above](#The aim of war:)) in the least amount of time shall be prioritized. And, from among these strategies:
The following filters **may** be applied after the filters specified above; and **should** be applied if feasible:
* Those strategies which carry the least financial/resource expense shall be prioritized.
However, by no means shall a `WS` polity paralyze itself with inaction in the face of the need to act against a clear and present threat; and the `WS` government shall **never** engage in the sacrifice of the `WS` residents and their property for the sake of an aggressor. While `WS` polities will reasonably attempt to abide by these principles: ultimately aggressors are cautioned not to aggress if they don't want to incur deaths/damages/losses, and `WS` reserves the right to retaliate without any limiting principle to defend the life and property of its residents.
