Question

This is an example of external conflict because it features character vs.

Answer 1

I’m missing the specific example you’re referring to. External conflict is any conflict between a character and an outside force — not internal struggle — so common completions are:

- character vs. character (another person; e.g., two rivals arguing or fighting)
- character vs. nature (storms, illness, animals)
- character vs. society (laws, cultural norms, community pressure)
- character vs. technology (machines, computers)
- character vs. supernatural/fate (ghosts, gods, destiny)

If you paste the sentence or scene, I’ll identify which external type it is and explain why.
