User:Compassionate727/Drafts/List of proxy wars (2nd draft)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of proxy wars. Proxy wars are wars where one or more countries use other countries or organizations to oppose each other. The supporting country may support the proxy by providing financial support, supplies, advisers, or intelligence, or by putting some kind of pressure on the proxy's opponents, but does not commit notable levels of troops.

This list is intended to be a brief look at conflicts. Some countries may not have been involved in the war for the full duration; these are not marked to avoid cluttering the tables. You may need to look more closely into a conflict to get a more accurate grasp of it.

The term aggressor does not imply that party acted without provocation. It is used to organize the various sides of a conflict based on which side fired what are considered to be the first shots of the conflict, as opposed to something meaningless (e.g. always putting communist forces in the first column and the anti-communist forces in the second).

In another effort to reduce table cluttering, some references which were checked but didn't include any information that wasn't provided by other resources are listed at the end, instead of using inline citations in the tables.
