Social - The social causes were: the tensions between the different ethnic and religious groups living in the country: Kurds, Arabs, Levantines, Shia Muslims, Sunni Muslims, Druzhe, and Christians.

Another social cause were the protests of 2011, which were part of the Arab Spring Movement.

Finally, the droughts in the previous years and the effects of climate change resulted in social tensions because many farmers lost their crops, food prices skyrocketed, and in and out domestic migration rose.

Political - The political cause of the War was the authoritarianism of the regime of Bashar Al Assad, who is the successor to his father, and has been a dictator for over two decades.
