In an actual sense, you cannot go to war. You can however RP war in the International Incidents forum. Here's the excerpt from the FAQ regarding it:

How do I go to war against another nation? Or trade?

In one sense, you can't. NationStates doesn't include these things -- because it's a simple game, and because they would bias things in favor of militaristic and capitalist nations. One of the nice things about NationStates is that you can craft a nation into your idea of Utopia without having to worry about such pragmatic concerns as national defence.

Into the breach, however, steps the NationStates community, which has independently devised an entire system covering war, trade, and just about anything else you can think of. This takes place entirely on the forums (mostly in International Incidents), and is role-played.

Many people have asked about the possibility of a more sophisticated version of NationStates, with trade, military conflicts, and more. This does sound cool, but I haven't decided yet if I want to do that. It would be a lot of work, and I'd have to charge people to play it. But it's possible.

There are also region invasions, where mass amounts of UN nations move in to a region, endorse each other, and one of them becomes Delegate and takes over. However, this can become griefing very easily if the new Delegate proceeds to post offensive messages or ban nations without cause. Also, many nations frown on this, and I am in fact a member of a defender group with tries to deter this. Reccommend you do RP only.

Roughly... "Lots of Laughs! I shoot my (insert obsenely large number here) nukes at your weak nation! Lot of Laughs, what the ****, bar-b-que!"

Like Myrth said, completely pointless, and when you translate it, flaming.
