    wage a war of conquest to secure the entire country

    There’s not a large difference between that and a war for secession. Either way it’s violence.

      One is holding ground that you already own vs. taking ground by force. From a military standpoint, there’s a massive difference.

      Not that I disagree that it’s violence either way, mind you. It’s just a different scale and situation.
