Two examples of conflict in democratic countries are

1. Conflict in Belgium between the Dutch speaking Flemish community and the French speaking Walloon population. The conflict has been resolved by creating a power sharing mechanism for the two communities.

2. Conflict between Sinhalese and Tamils in Sri Lanka. The conflict led to a long civil war in Sri Lanka. The conflict was resolved only with the defeat of the LTTE in the civil war.

Conflicts of interest in democracies are usually resolved through negotiation and log-rolling. Losing a political battle does not result in the loss of political rights or exclusion from future political competition.
