The current wars. In the sample scenario, a former employee's alternating-current system competes commercially with his ex-employer's direct-current system, and the dispute is fought through public demonstrations, press campaigns and patent litigation rather than personal insults. Historical accounts differ on how personal the animosity actually was, and this entry treats the more colourful anecdotes as contested. It matters because the commercial outcome determined how electricity is distributed to this day. AC prevailed.
