India/Pakistan has seen recurring war.
***India/Pakistan is a conflict between 2 sovereign states, not a civil war.

Israel/Palestine has seen three hot wars and constant hostility.
***Israel is building a partition as well and they’ve seen dramatic decreases in the number of attacks. It’s such a special case because it probably also fits within the framework of 2 sovereign states. Also, it doesn’t fit the Iron Fist scenario C because of political expediency, nor is one side completely vanquished. Like so many other things in Israeli politics, the partition defies pigeon-hole categorization but it is still instructive.

Both are examples of partitions. Seems you forgot your own question.
