Historian Gwynne Dyer has faced this question during a career serving in the navies of three countries: Canada, the US and the UK.
He says that although war has come to Ukraine, the truth is that the world has been getting less war-like for many decades.
Gwynne is the author of many books on history, war, and technology.
His latest book investigates how people have waged war since the dawn of humanity right up to the present day.
Seven decades have passed since two great powers have gone to war with each other.
But now, Gwynne warns, things are changing.
