Question: War and Peace and Tamerlano, is what type of play?
Context: "Israel's Next War" is an episode of the PBS series "Frontline" that aired on 5 April 2005.  The episode, by Israeli director Dan Setton, investigated the rise of the religious right in Israel and the role it could play as a "spoiler" in peace negotiations with the Palestinians.  It was Setton's second documentary film for PBS: his previous film for them, "Shattered Dreams of Peace," won him a Peabody Award. Peace (Greek: Εἰρήνη "Eirēnē") is an Athenian Old Comedy written and produced by the Greek playwright Aristophanes.  It won second prize at the City Dionysia where it was staged just a few days before the Peace of Nicias was validated (421 BC), which promised to end the ten-year-old Peloponnesian War.  The play is notable for its joyous anticipation of peace and for its celebration of a return to an idyllic life in the countryside.  However, it also sounds a note of caution, there is bitterness in the memory of lost opportunities and the ending is not happy for everyone.  As in all of Aristophanes' plays, the jokes are numerous, the action is wildly absurd and the satire is savage.  Cleon, the pro-war populist leader of Athens, is once again a target for the author's wit, even though he had died in battle just a few months earlier. Tamerlano ("Tamerlane", HWV 18) is an opera seria in three acts written for the Royal Academy of Music theatre company, with music by George Frideric Handel to an Italian text by Nicola Francesco Haym, adapted from Agostin Piovene's "Tamerlano" together with another libretto entitled "Bajazet" after Nicolas Pradon's "Tamerlan, ou La Mort de Bajazet". Peace is a certain quality of existence which has been sought after, yet seldom found in a long enduring form, since time immemorial.  In a behavioral sense, peace is generally understood to be a lack of conflict and freedom from fear of violence between heterogeneous social groups.  Throughout history benevolent leaders have often exhibited a certain type of behavioral or political restraint, which in turn has often resulted in the establishment of regional peace and/ or economic growth through various forms of agreements and/ or peace treaties.  Such behavioral restraint has often resulted in the de-escalation of conflicts, or in multilateral or bilateral peace talks.  The avoidance of war or violent hostility is often the result of compromise, and is often initiated with thoughtful active listening and communication, which may tend to enable a greater genuine mutual understanding. A peace movement is a social movement that seeks to achieve ideals such as the ending of a particular war (or all wars), minimize inter-human violence in a particular place or type of situation, and is often linked to the goal of achieving world peace.  Means to achieve these ends include advocacy of pacifism, non-violent resistance, diplomacy, boycotts, peace camps, moral purchasing, supporting anti-war political candidates, legislation to remove the profit from government contracts to the Military–industrial complex, banning guns, creating open government and transparency tools, direct democracy, supporting Whistleblowers who expose War-Crimes or conspiracies to create wars, demonstrations, and national political lobbying groups to create legislation.  The political cooperative is an example of an organization that seeks to merge all peace movement organizations and green organizations, which may have some diverse goals, but all of whom have the common goal of peace and humane sustainability.  A concern of some peace activists is the challenge of attaining peace when those that oppose it often use violence as their means of communication and empowerment. A crime against peace, in international law, is "planning, preparation, initiation, or waging of wars of aggression, or a war in violation of international treaties, agreements or assurances, or participation in a common plan or conspiracy for the accomplishment of any of the foregoing".  This definition of crimes against peace was first incorporated into the Nuremberg Principles and later included in the United Nations Charter.  This definition would play a part in defining aggression as a crime against peace.  It can also refer to the core international crimes set out in Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, (genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and the crime of aggression) which adopted crimes negotiated previously in the Draft code of crimes against the peace and security of mankind. War and Peace (Op. 91) (Russian: Война и мир , "Voyna i mir") is an opera in two parts (an Epigraph and 13 scenes), sometimes arranged as five acts, by Sergei Prokofiev to a Russian libretto by the composer and Mira Mendelson, based on the novel "War and Peace" by Leo Tolstoy.  Although Tolstoy's work is classified as a novel, the 1812 invasion of Russia by the French was based on real-life events, and some real-life people appear as characters in both the novel and the opera, e.g. Prince Mikhail Kutuzov and Napoleon Bonaparte. A joint civil-military operations task force, or JCMOTF, is a task organized military unit with the functional purpose of conducting civil-military operations.  A JCMOTF generally contains civil affairs type forces with specialists in areas such as nation building, humanitarian assistance, public works and utilities, public safety and health, public education, governance and economics.  A military commander may form a JCMOTF during war or disaster relief to stabilize and rebuild an area.  A commander may also employ a JCMOTF during peace to perform humanitarian or nation assistance.  A JCMOTF may also contain civilian governance, development or stabilization specialists. Kate Phillips is a British actress best known for her roles in "Peaky Blinders", "Wolf Hall" and the 2016 BBC adaptation of "War & Peace".  After three years study at Leeds University Philips secured a place at The Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London.  After graduation she returned to Leeds to appear as Abigail Williams in "The Crucible" at the West Yorkshire Playhouse.  By this time she had already filmed her scenes for the BBC's adaptation of "Wolf Hall" in which she played Jane Seymour, a role she had been offered whilst still studying at Guildhall.  There was some mild controversy following the initial airing of "Wolf Hall" after some historians's described Philips as 'too pretty' to play Henry VIII's third wife.  This criticism was disregarded by several critics who praised Philips' performance with "Screen Daily" naming her as a 'Star of Tomorrow'.  She went on to secure roles in "War & Peace", "Peaky Blinders" and "The Crown". Kabinettskriege (] , "Cabinet Wars"; singular "Kabinettskrieg") is the German expression referring to the type of wars which affected Europe during the period of absolute monarchies, from the 1648 Peace of Westphalia to the 1789 French Revolution.  It is also known as "war between princes."  Such wars involved small armies, noble officer corps, limited war goals, and frequently changing coalitions among the belligerents.
