Religious conflicts occur when different religious groups clash over beliefs, practices, or territorial claims. These disputes can arise from historical grievances, competition for resources, or differing interpretations of sacred texts. 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 not only the involved groups but also broader communities and nations. Efforts to resolve these conflicts typically focus on dialogue, understanding, and promoting tolerance among different faiths.
