1. Lack of education among people
In most cases, children at young ages can’t distinguish the right and the wrong, so they would believe in what they witness the most, which, in this case, is discrimination against provincial people.
2. Discrimination-based environment
People who grew up in a discrimination-based environment would consider that discrimination towards provincial people is conventional.

3. Prejudices & stereotypes from the past.
Wars caused conflicts and hatred among communities, up until the present day some people, typically the elders are still affected by those mindsets.
4. Assumptions from bad characteristics of provincial people.
People pick out the most common, yet negative traits to create the assumption for the whole.
5. Others
There are still more causes of regional discrimination that we might have missed. If you know some, please comment on the comment section below to engage to our project!
