Religious Conflicts
Religious conflicts occur when different religious groups clash over beliefs, practices, or territorial claims. These disputes can arise from historical grievances, political power struggles, or cultural differences. Examples include the Crusades, where Christians and Muslims fought over holy sites, and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which involves religious and national identities.
Such conflicts can lead to violence, discrimination, and social division. They often affect communities, causing displacement and loss of life. Efforts to resolve these conflicts typically involve dialogue, peacebuilding initiatives, and promoting understanding among different faiths, aiming to foster coexistence and reduce tensions.
