36:. During the 18th century, serious conflicts occurred between the two factions. These conflicts only ended after many sub-tribes were united under one leader that belonged to one of the two factions. The Hinawis gathered under Khalaf bin Mubarak Alhinai from the Bani Hina tribe, while the Ghafiris gathered under Mohammed bin Nasir Alghafiri of the Beni Ghafir tribe. The almost equal strength of the two alliances led to the end of the feud. The rivalry played a decisive role in shaping the political history of Oman, with Omani tribes affiliating themselves historically with either the Ghafiri or Hinawi alliances.
32:. Characterized as two significant factions having distinct interests and organizations, their rivalry began approximately 2000 years ago; almost during the time Ghafiris arrived to Oman. The Hinawis, for the most part, resided in southeast Oman, while the Ghafiris predominated in the northwestern part of Oman. Several tribal groups make up the Hinawi alliance, such as, the Dhowahir, Beni Yas, and the Awamir, Beni Hina and the

power alliances that resulted in peace. The rivalry ignited again during the 19th century but also ended after the two major tribes united under Imam
Alkharusi in 1913 against British imperialism that started to develop in the Sultanate of Muscat. The conflict between the Imamate and the Sultanate ended with the signing of the

leadership. Frequent conflicts between the two groups came to the fore during the election of the
Imamate in 1719, which was contested by one Hinawi and one Ghafiri candidate. The rivalry of the 18th century ended when the smaller tribes that constituted Ghafiris and Hinawis created almost equal in
162:, which resulted in a stable Oman and Muscat during the period of 1920–54. Although feuds still persist, the outburst is generally limited in the present day to football rivalry between the teams of both confederations.
