Notes

Character vs. Character (external) - When someone yells at a character or serves as an obstacle, this is an external conflict because the problem comes from outside of the character. It is an example of one person against another and is also called Man vs. man.
Character vs. Nature (external) - When a character can't do something because of the weather or environment, this is also an external conflict because the problem occurs outside of the character. We call it Man vs. Nature because it is an example of nature working against a person.
Character vs. Society (external) - Sometimes characters feel out of place. Maybe they wear the wrong clothes to a party, or they don't fit in with a group of people. This is also an external conflict because the problem comes from outside of the character. We call it Man vs. Society because it is an example of society working against a person.
Character vs. Self (internal) - Some characters lack the confidence they need. Fear might stop them from participating in certain activities. Love or anger might cause them to do things they wouldn't normally do. These kinds of problems are internal conflicts because they come from inside the character. This is also called Man vs Self.
