There are a lot of stars. Maybe enough to go around.
Anyway, its commonly been theorized that waging war across unimaginable interstellar distances is unlikely or even impossible. Hard enough to seed another system with a spore, much less export capability to wage war.

- JoeAltmaier 6y agoKind of the opposite of 'expansion'. That's essentially 'demolition'. Not going to be anything worth expanding into, after that. Like blowing up a safe generally incinerates the money inside.
