What is the main conflict of your story?

My book is: 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea

The main conflict is between Capetian  Nemo and "that hated nation," whose ships he rams and sinks. In recent years, people have read in Jules Verne's publisher's files that the "hated nation" was Russia, and that Capt. Nemo was a Pole who was avenging his country for suppressing Polish uprisings in 1830 and 1848. The publisher urged Verne to leave that part out of the book so not to offend readers anyway.

  1. Cool! I wish you could've written how you think the conflict was solved, but otherwise I think you explained the conflict well and the different opinions on it. Great job!
