Many Conflicts in History

Whether we like it or not, conflict is a part of everyday lives. It can happen to anyone, from your friends to your family.

Conflict will always exist in the modern world. One of the biggest motivators in the approach to conflict is fear. Conflict shapes the formation and intensity of fear. Fear can bring about ideas or actions that one normally would not ever think or implement.As fear builds up people will often go to extremes to try as much as possible to mitigate their fear. Eventually fear grows so large that it may consume all of one’s thoughts. This will motivate someone to resort to desperate plans to try and assuage their fear. The fear caused by war can do many things to the human body mentally and physically. In “ All The Light We Cannot See”, Anthony Doerr proves in times of conflict, fear becomes one of the motivating factors.

The world’s first global conflict, World War 1 (1914-1918), opposed the Central Powers of Germany, Ottoman Empire, Austria and Hungary against the Allied forces of The United States, Great Britain, Russia, France, Japan and Italy. World War 1 was significant because of the initial appliance of modern technology into warfare; which consequently resulted in an unfathomable amount of soldiers’ deaths and multinational collateral damage. Through the introduction of multinational war, was the introduction of personal experiences and perspectives of all parties included. Although we may never know firsthand of the emotional pressure and frame of mind of the many individuals who endured the World War 1, we are fortunate in the amounts of historical artifacts, including literature written during those times, to help provide the future with an awareness and appreciation for those who sacrificed their lives for the world today.

Encountering conflict is an inevitable facet of human existence, which by definition is the opposition of intangible entities. From conflict individuals and societies may be challenged and furthered in terms of social and moral values and beliefs, as each comes to encounter the underlying and intangible elements of conflict and through this, humanity.

While reading history, we typically see that wars were typically fought with soldiers in close- order formations with a musket that would be fired in unison on command. Everything changed after the American Civil War, a conflict to determine the fate of slaves in the Union, erupted. Today many historians consider the Civil War as the first modern war because it depended on: heavy industry, fast communication and transportation. But this time all of these new technologies were used to its full potential. As a result new weapon technology was mass produced which inflicted heavy losses on both the Union and the Confederate sides and resulted in

War arises when there is conflict. History tends to repeat itself. Many times in history, there are similarities in conflict. Lots of different wars took place because of a conflict that has already been fought over. Typically, people are killed over these conflicts. Radicalized religion and patriotism, organized killing, and religion/country expansion are all examples of conflict results that have occurred in both the Reformation, Renaissance, and World War I.

Since the beginning of time, man, unfortunately, has found many ways of destroying each other. Because of that there have been many wars: American

Conflict is something that exists in the everyday lives of all humans throughout the world. It can be shaped by the thoughts that are shared and also challenged by others. Conflict is like a tree. Once the idea is planted into someone's thoughts, it sprouts and begins to grow. As the idea continues to grow and spreads its branches, others who agree with the idea grow around it and the conflict builds and builds until it is like an overwhelming forest. Once conflict is formed and created, it can grow until it affects the lives of everyone is the surrounding area and can lead to extreme cases. This is the case when Callero shows how conflict can be created and begin violence, how Venkatesh shows the spread of conflict so the violence affects

representation of on going war and the animosity between the two often explodes into extreme violence.

One thing that is a part of every person’s life on every day of every week of every month of every year is conflict. Conflict is something that people, no matter how they strive, cannot escape from. Whether the conflict on a certain day is on a large scale or it is a miniscule bump in the road, it can be said that there will always be conflict. When people encounter conflict, the sole thing on their minds is to devise a way to be rid of it. The way that a person responds to whatever conflict they are faced with is what determines success or failure. If a person meets the conflict head on and with a positive attitude, then it is almost certain to end in success. If a person meets the conflict with a negative attitude and tries to avoid it, then

The years that i'm dating back to was 1783-1860 the events that took place which was the U.S. Trade Partners and military engagements. Now think process this why is there a war in the middle of a trading process? let's get more into this subject. What i believe was going on within these maps was countries fighting over money/trade routes many countries would maybe supply more than others even getting more money than others. Countries could’ve had a couple disagreements over who uses which trade routes or which country could trade with who.

If the conflict of differences of opinions were to happen between authorities, then “they would lessen the respectability of the leaders, weaken the authority that they have, and distract the plans that they may have had”, as stated in Federalist 70 (3). Having too many leaders at once leads to chaos because people start to question what is being said to be true or false. He says that they may split the community into the most violent and incompatible groups, observing differences to the different individuals who composed the magistracy. He says that “a plurality tends to conceal faults and destroy responsibility. It is safer to have a single object for the jealousy and watchfulness of the people, and that all multiplication of the executive would be more dangerous than friendly to liberty. It is more narrowly watched and readily suspected with just one executive.” (3) Having more than one leader to watch causes confusion and while people are watching one leader, the other can be doing things out of integrity. He advocates for it because the singular executive has centralized powers, has accountability, has unity and brings energy. Hamilton had proposed the Annapolis Convention which fell short of successful. He proposed the convention to discuss the trade barriers that the states had but only five states sent representatives out of thirteen, which was not enough to make important decisions. Hamilton, the Secretary of Treasury, had many thoughts on what would be

Whether fighting is happening between people, between governments, or society, the conflict is still the same. Conflict can happen when people do not define progress the same way as others. This can be in the form as simple disagreements, arguments, fighting, or war. The most common conflict is man against man and usually takes in the form of disagreements and can lead to wars if not pertained correctly.

Many times America has intervened in foreign conflicts such as World War I and World War II. Although Americans did not intervene in World War I until later, their role was to stop Germany from sinking US ships and to stop Germany form trying to conquer most of Europe because it posed a threat to democracy, according to Woodrow Wilson. In the novels The Quiet American, by Graham Greene and in For Whom the Bell Tolls, by Ernest Hemingway, Americans get involved in foreign conflict. Although they have the same motifs, which is to help the local people they both take on a different way of helping them. In Greene’s novel the American tries to apply a “Third Force” to get things settled and introduce the idea of democracy. On the other hand, in Hemingway’s novel the American helps fight against the fascist by planning a bomb attack.
