Having a galaxy-spanning civilization does not necessarily mean it will be a unified civilization. Western civilization encompasses dozens of countries, some of them actively hostile to one-another. Of course, warfare within a Type III civilization would probably be something none of us would ever want to experience...

Warfare as we conceive of it would have been shifted to warring against the restrictions of physics; war would have to be eliminated for a Type I to advance to Type II. Think of the obliteration capabilities of a true Type I civilization! ~
