global conflict
International armed struggle
Global conflict refers to warfare or serious disputes that involve multiple nations across different regions of the world, or that affect international stability broadly.
The term often describes the World Wars or potential nuclear confrontations: Analysts warned that the regional crisis could escalate into global conflict.
It may also apply to sustained geopolitical tensions that don't involve direct combat but shape international relations: the global conflict between democratic and authoritarian systems.
