Territory is a concept familiar to every intelligent being. If an animal or human believes that they have claim to an area, they will fight to defend it. And no matter what the territory is, the results are often tragic.
Causes
Territorial conflict comes from two notions; the notion that a person or people has claim to a space or resource, and the notion that the space is being invaded. If the space is needed or wanted by the party, they will be feel threatened by competing claims, and respond accordingly.
Identity and Principles
Territorial disputes are often motivated not just by the need for a space, but also by the desire to uphold principles. For example, religious groups fighting over a stretch of land may each consider the contested space holy. They believe that their god or gods bestowed the place upon them, and to relinquish it to an outside group would be a betrayal their of faith.
Solutions
Conflicts are best resolved via rational discussion, preferably mediated by a third party. Creating a space for civil negotiation can be difficult, but when forced to confront their problems with reason, most people will be able to reach a compromise.
