This picture shows the Filipino Revolution and how the KKK or the Philippines ousted the Spanish by using violence.

[Answer To The Reflection Question]
Conflict in society is inevitable, either it is a dispute and verbal argument or it is a conflict which may lead or recquire arms and weapons, conflict will always still arise because of the never ending dispute on views of the human race, whether it is because of a spoiled milk or if it is because of oppression, division and Greed, we can see this in the picture above where the reason why the Fiipinos fought for their independence against the spanish is because they were being opressed, the spanish viewed the Filipinos as fodder while the Filipinos viewed the spanish as a "social cancer" and with these conflicting views and the circumstances that was happening at that time the Filipinos revolted and they seemingly won the war against the spanish, so conflict in society is inevitable because of the fact that we humans prioritize our own well being and ambitions over other people and this caused the 3 Gs which was "God, Gold and Glory" and this seemingly affected those around them and it led to conflict and war.

This picture provides us with the hiroshima bombing and how the US unleashed this devastating attack against Japan

[Answer To The Relection Question]
Conflict may result in both bad or good in society since conflict may make an unperfect product be polished or perfect but conflict can also lead to negative effects like for example war, war kills and affects alot of lives, it also pollutes the enviornment with its radiation and it can cause sicknesses just like what happened in the hiroshima bombing with this the lasting impact of conflict on society may vary since it depends how severe the disconnect of actions is like for example in the hiroshima bombing it affected millions of lives and it lasted for decades or the icebergs that is melting in the south pole it may affect the world for centuries and millenias to come so conflict in society has many affects both good and bad but its affects long term can and will affect things greatly.

This Photo represents China in the territory of the Philippines which is the West Philippine Sea.

[Answer to the reflection question]
An event in history that has similarities in the issue that is being faced in the west philiipine sea is World War 2 this is because in WW2 Germany wanted to expand their territory by invading poland first and they did this because they thought that they were wronged in the treaty of versailles and they wanted to restore the name of Germany after World War I so their pride and selfishness or Greed led them to conquering the nations that they deemed beneath them like Poland who did not have a stronger or equal footing to the German Might and their strategies like "Blitz creeg", I can see similarities in WW II with the West Philippine Sea conflict because of the greed that china displayed or is displaying and they are also trying to trample on the Philippines because of the Philiipines lack of military strength so China tried to take advantage of that just like what happened with Germany and Poland.

This picture is a picture of Mahatma Ghandi who is an indian lawyer and a peace revolutionary.

[Answer to the Reflection Question]
Yes conflicts can be resolved and we can accomplish this using peaceful matters and manners just like what ghandi used in the indian revolution, Gahndi didnt offer to fight or use violence against the british but he supported and fought with peace he used laws and legislations to oust the british and of course because of the world war India was able to establish freedom so just like Gandhi we can resolve conflicts by peaceful and non violent means.

Greta Thunberg advocating for climate change

[Answer To The Reflection Question]
As young members of society we can contribute to addressing societal conflict by trying to advocate for peace in our own ways just like Greta thunberg who is advocating for change in the environment we must also advocate for change in the world we must advocate for the betterment of this world and for the connection and comradery that is required to co exist in this world so in our own little ways like resolving conflicts, understanding each other and trying to avoid conflict peace will be something that can be obtained in the forseeable future

# data[].attributes.body
In conclusion although peace is not permanent and conflict will always occur due to the conflicting interests and ideas of man, we may still be able to avoid huge conflicts that may take lives and affect others greatly, we may still be men of others by being cautious and knowing what or when to speak and we can achieve this by being a nuclear detterent by and through our own little ways.
