The answer depends on an individual. Some people like Ruth Heing say "Countries went to war because they believed that they could achieve more through war than by a diplomatic negotiation". Some people like Bo Bennett say "Diplomacy is more than saying or doing the right things at the right time, it is avoiding saying or doing the wrong things at any time".

The reason why Georgia still exists today is because when Turkey invaded Georgia in 10th, 11th century Georgia was constrained to defend its self. Georgia wasn't the one who started the conflict. If Georgia would not have defended itself from the invaders (who were mostly from Muslim countries),
