Divergent

Better watch your back. One wrong move and could you be executed by the leaders of your faction and have no one care. The main conflict of the books of Divergent and Insurgent is caused by the divergent population of dystopian Chicago. This conflict starts when divergent Beatrice Prior turns 16 and this begins a story of simulations, war, and an almost unsolvable conflict.

Erudite the faction of knowledge. The hunger for information and the creation of new technology. Also the creator of injected simulations. These injections cause people to face their fears, decide which faction to become apart of, and even be controlled without realizing. Except for the Divergent. They can alter these simulations and fight them. Naturally the Erudite want to know why this happens and how to stop it. All their attempts to control them have failed and the only ones with information is the Abnegation. In an attempt to obtain this information the Erudite create a attack simulation for the Dauntless to kill countless Abnegation. Beatrice, who had just joined dauntless is caught up in one of the biggest conflicts shes ever known.

 After the simulations rip everyone apart, the factions split. Some stand with Erudite while others look to take down the faction that has caused all of these problems. War breaks out between the two sides. Beatrice becomes an influential part of the force against erudite. Even though she want to be free of simulations she tries to find a resolution so they don't lose the factions that every one relies on to live.

While there is a huge problem Beatrice struggles to find a solution. Even going the extremes of sacrificing herself to erudite and going behind her boyfriends back to search for peace among the factions with the father he greatly despises.  This problem evolves to become a stand still. No one knows the right way to solve it but the fight between Erudite simulated soldiers and the force against them becomes more and more heated each day.

This huge conflict in the city started over the divergent can be ended by them. There have been no decisive blows by either side and every leader is reeling for a solution. There is almost no way to solve it, peacefully that is.
