So, authoritarian is when they don't bomb other countries, and libertarian is when they bomb every day?

Nope didn't say that at all, nice try though. You can be authoritarian and not bomb other countries and you can be authoritarian and bomb other countries.

Foreign affairs dont necessarily effect that determination.

The US I'd say is authoritarian and imperialist.

A country like Saudia Arabia or North Korea is just Authoritarian and tend to at least only meddle with boarding nations.
