A division or disagreement between parties can be called a?

  1. Reiteration

  2. Qualm

  3. Schism

  4. Pretentious

The correct answer is: Schism

A division or disagreement between parties is best described as a schism. This term specifically refers to a split or division, especially in a context where there are differing opinions or beliefs, often seen in religious or political groups. A schism indicates a significant and often prolonged disagreement that leads to separation, highlighting the severity and impact of the division. Other terms listed do not convey the same meaning. For example, reiteration refers to the act of repeating something for emphasis or clarity, which does not relate to division. Qualm usually indicates a feeling of unease or a doubt about something, rather than a disagreement between parties. Pretentious describes someone or something that tries to appear more important, sophisticated, or impressive than it really is, which is not related to the concept of division or disagreement.
