'locally-conflicted' originates from the combination of 'local' and 'conflict,' where 'local' refers to a specific area and 'conflict' means a serious disagreement or argument.

'Local' and 'conflict' have been used separately in English since the Middle Ages, but their combination into 'locally-conflicted' is a more modern usage.

Initially, 'local' and 'conflict' were used separately, but their combination into 'locally-conflicted' now specifically refers to conflicts within a local context.
