Territorial conflicts occur when two or more groups or nations dispute control over a specific area of land. These disputes can arise from historical claims, cultural significance, or resource availability. Often, such conflicts lead to tensions, negotiations, or even military confrontations as each side seeks to assert its rights over the territory. These conflicts can involve various entities, including countries, indigenous peoples, or local communities. Examples include the Israel-Palestine conflict over land in the Middle East and the disputes in the South China Sea involving multiple nations. Resolving these conflicts often requires diplomatic efforts and international mediation.
