Intrastate conflicts refer to disputes or violence that occur within a single country, often involving different groups vying for power, resources, or autonomy. These conflicts can arise from ethnic, religious, or political differences and may lead to civil wars or other forms of internal strife. Examples include the Syrian Civil War and the Rwandan Genocide. Such conflicts can have devastating effects on a nation's stability, economy, and social fabric. They often result in significant loss of life, displacement of populations, and long-term humanitarian crises. Addressing intrastate conflicts typically requires complex negotiations and interventions from both national and international actors.
