What is Conflict?
A '''conflict''' is a struggle between people which may be physical, or between very different [[idea]]s. The word comes from the [[Latin]] verb {{lang|la|conflīgĕre}}, which means ''to come together for a battle''.<ref>{{Cite dictionary|url=https://www.online-latin-dictionary.com/latin-english-dictionary.php?lemma=CONFLIGO100|title=conflīgo|author-last=Olivetti|author-first=Enrico|dictionary=Online Latin Dictionary|publisher=Olivetti Media Communication|language=en,it,fr|access-date=2024-07-07}}</ref> Conflicts can either be within one person, or they can involve several people or groups. Conflicts arise because there are [[need]]s, [[value]]s or [[idea]]s that are seen to be different, and there is no means to reconcile the [[dispute]]. Very often, conflicts lead to [[fight]]s or even [[war]]s (in the case where conflicts are solved with [[weapon]]s). Conflict between ideas is usually fought with [[propaganda]]. ==Related pages== *[[Conflict resolution]] *[[Dispute]] ==References== {{reflist}} [[Category:Conflicts| ]] [[Category:War]] {{military-stub}}
