When one country is going through these difficulties, other countries step in to help out. They send in troops to bring the conflict to an end for the protection of civilians, to save the lives of the soldiers fighting in unjust positions, and for the sake of the ultimate goal of global peace. After a conflict has occurred, international military force organizations, such as the United Nations, send in peacekeeping provisions.
