Guerrilla warfare is a form of irregular warfare. Guerrilla warriors are able harass a larger and less-mobile traditional army. This has a byproduct of making governments more militarily innovative (to combat guerrilla warfare), which can actually end up making them stronger in the long run. Also, Guerrilla warfare can lead to a stronger military government by capitalizing on the vast resources of the nation.
