The main conflict surrounds Orwell's reluctance to shoot an elephant that the Burmese villagers claim is nuisance. On a broader scale, the conflict revolves around British imperialism around the world during this era. There is both external and internal conflict here. Orwell doesn't want to be a part of the imperial force yet has responsibilities because he represents it.
