Come up with a definition for each and pass your papers forward. We'll then make fun of discuss your answers.

Power: The force a country or army has to pressure other country's into doing its will or acceding to its demands.

Total War: The policy of destroying every possible resource to prevent the other country/force from being able to use it; utilising every resource one has available for the war effort.

Security Dilemma: The idea that if one country gains power, any others in the region will be less secure.
