Victory
is
winning
an
argument
,
war
or
test
. Many
songs
have been made called
victory songs
. Victory often comes with a lot of
emotion
. Victory is usually celebrated after winning, although there are many times not to, like after a war. The term comes from the
culture of ancient Rome
, when it meant winning a war.
In terms of human emotion, being victorious usually brings strong feelings of gladness, and in human behaviour often has movements and victory poses.
Victory dances and victory cries are quite similar to war dances and war cries that are done before the violence.
