All of these factors can contribute to the escalation of tensions and ultimately lead to genocide. Economic imbalance can lead to resentment and create fertile ground for political groups to exploit existing social divisions as a means of gaining power. Ethnic tension, historical rivalries, and religious differences can further exacerbate these divisions, creating a narrative of blame and superiority that can justify violent actions against targeted groups. When these factors intersect and are manipulated by political groups seeking power, the result can be catastrophic and lead to mass atrocities.
