estado de guerra: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, explica que la palabra "estado" se escribe con inicial mayúscula cuando se alude a una forma de organización política o al conjunto de los órganos de gobierno de un país, pero en minúscula si equivale a "situación", de modo que construcciones como "estado de alarma", "estado de emergencia", "estado de excepción", "estado de sitio" o "estado de guerra" se escriben con minúscula. 2, record 1, Spanish, - estado%20de%20guerra
