"When people say there's tribal wars in a country, it means that big important warlords have divided the country up. They've divided up all the money, all the land, all the people. They divide up everything and the whole world lets them, everyone in the whole world lets them kill innocent men and children and women. And that's not all! The funniest thing is that the warlords are all using desperate measures to hang on to the things they've got, but the same warlords are doing everything they can to get their hands on more stuff (according to the Larousse, 'desperate measures' means 'all-out physical force').
