returns to capital. Solow proposed the model while considers the rate of saving and population growth as exogenous and demonstrated that the countries reach the steady state level of income per capita. However, the classical Solow model is not able to explain cross-country variation in the standard of living. The Solow model predicts the effect of saving and population growth on economic growth qualitatively but not quantitatively .The authors have augmented the Solow model with accumulation of Human

Introduction War is inherent in the development of capitalism- as well as a decisive phenomenon in the transformation of the history of humanity in its different stages: from the accumulation originating, going through the industrial revolution and the imperialist period, until now, in the era of globalization, and their interactions are multiple and varied. At present, these have been reinforced under the apothegm of “politics as prolongation of the war”, unlike “the war as an extension of the
