the history of guerrilla warfare stretches back to ancient history. while guerrilla tactics can be viewed as a natural continuation of prehistoric warfare, the chinese general and strategist sun tzu, in his "the art of war" (6th century bce), was the earliest to propose the use of guerrilla warfare. this directly inspired the development of modern guerrilla warfare. communist leaders like mao zedong and north vietnamese ho chi minh both implemented guerrilla warfare in the style of sun tzu, which served as a model for similar strategies elsewhere, such as the cuban "foco" theory and the anti-soviet mujahadeen in afghanistan. while the tactics of modern guerrilla warfare originate in the 20th century, irregular warfare, using elements later characteristic of modern guerrilla warfare, has existed throughout the battles of many ancient civilizations.
