How Does ethnocentricity Cause Conflict?

ethnocentricity can cause conflict, when someone evaluates someone else's culture to their own, they could think that the other culture was different from their culture, they could say the way live is wrong, how they worship their gods are wrong, or their language is wrong. All of these things can lead to conflict, in this case the British were trying to change the Aboriginals culture. The British took the Aborigines children and put them in government camps to learn how to live the British way of life, this lead to huge amounts of conflict. The British made a status of the Aboriginals as animals, due to their culture, and the British took their land. When the British started colonize across Australia they changed the land, planting their own crops and destroying the Aborigines crops causing a lot of fighting and conflict. The fighting then led the British to go on a man hunt slaughtering hundreds of Aboriginals, causing even more conflict. By this time the Aboriginals thought of the British as Demons, the Aboriginals didn't understand why the British were being this way, they thought that if they destroyed some of their crops then the Aboriginals could kill some of the British livestock. Most of the conflict was caused by misunderstanding each others culture. This shows that ethnocentricity can cause conflict.
