Introdcution 

A declaration of war is a formal act by which one state goes to war against another.

The declaration is made by an authorised party of a national government, in order to create a state of war between two or more states.

Once the declaration has been made, military personnel will be deployed to the war zone.The armed services exist as servants of the government and can only go into military action when ordered to do so by the government. 

There is also an impact on their families who may experience stress and anxiety about the welfare of their loved ones. Going to war is also a tremendously expensive prospect.
