A warlord is a person with power who has military control over a subnational area due to armed forces loyal to the warlord and not to a central authority. The word "warlord" arose as a calque from the German word "Kriegsherr" with the same meaning. Today the Germans often use the English word, which has overtaken "Kriegsherr" in their language.
Examples of Warlord Countries:
Somalia: With the collapse of the central government, groups of rival warlords constitute the only form of authority in some parts of the country.
Other countries and territories with warlords include Afghanistan, Iraq, Chechnya, Burma, Colombia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Sri Lanka and Pakistan.
