Conflict may arise over struggle for territory. Some nations wish to expand their lands by taking over territory owned by their neighbours. Often, nations seek more territory because they need more natural resources. Such resources might include fossil fuels or valuable minerals, good agricultural lands, water resources, even access to the sea for trading purposes. Such wars over resources are considered wars started for ―economicreasons.

Other times, nations and people wish to takeover neighbouring lands purely to exercise their power. Often these causes for conflict are referred to as ―nationalist or ―politicalreasons. People of a region or nation are proud of their heritage and believe they possess the right to takeover and rule another group of people just because they are powerful enough to do so! Another type of ―politicalconflict might arise between those in power (control of the government) and citizens within the country who feel they have not been treated fairly. Such citizens might have been denied political or civil rights, such as the right to vote, to speak freely, or to receive fair treatment in courts of law.

Many of today‘s international conflicts begin because of differences in culture. Such cultural differences are often religious differences. Unfortunately, some religious groups feel their particular religion is superior to others‘ and such intolerance leads to conflict. Other culturalconflicts are based on ethnic or racial differences between groups of people living near one another. One ethnic or racial group may feel superior to others. This may lead to prejudice and discrimination against the minority ethnic or racial group. Violence or warfare might eventually break out when minority groups attempt to fight for their individual rights or liberties.
