Answer:

Class conflict is the political tension and economic antagonism between two or more different social classes usually as a result of socio-economic competition.

One of the best examples would be France in the late 1700's, where the difference between the socio-economic status of the king, nobles and clergy created a conflict that would end up with the lower classes rising up and starting a revolution.
