List and describe the 4 major types of conflict

Man vs. Man, Man vs. Self, Man vs. Society, Man vs. Nature

Explanation:

Man vs. Man
- When a character is having problems or conflict with another character

- External- Example: The little boy yelled at his friend for hitting him in the arm.- The conflict caused is by the boys friend effecting the little boy

Man vs. Self
- When a character is having problems with themselves, usually psychological

- Internal- Example: Jordan couldn't decide between the blue dress and the purple dress for homecoming.- The conflict is between Jordan and herself because she can't decide what color dress to wear

Man vs. Society
- When a character isn't fitting in with what the society considers as normal, or the character isn't following the rules

- External- Example:The teenage boy doesn't fit in with the rest of the kids at school.- The conflict caused is between the teen and the rest of high school society because he doesn't fit in with the "social norm"

Man vs. Nature
- When a character is having problems with nature

- External- Example: The hurricane reached land and crushed all the houses in its path.- The conflict caused is one of nature that effects man

The four major types of conflict are
Man vs. Man (which is man vs. its own species)
Man vs. Nature (Which is man vs. the forces of nature, maybe a hurricane or a tornado?)
Man vs. Society (Man vs. the laws and rulings of society, or maybe one huge idea that society thinks that they should follow)
Man vs. Self (Man vs. his own mental state, maybe depression or some other mental disorder they may be struggling with.

If none of those are right, there is a fifth major conflict which is Man vs. Technology, which is as it sounds. Maybe man vs. robots or something of the sort.
