Sibling implies something good natured or a squabble, but why was it mostly violent and hateful?
even today, rhetoric especially toward the french is often hateful for some reason and without giving a clear argument

Because some Duke of Burgundy fucked some Countess of Flanders and then they thought it would be cool to connect their two territories.

Bordergore was common back then. In fact many modern maps simplify the borders of medieval states.
Here is for example a map of the County of Namur. That's pretty bordergore and even this is a bit simplified.
I suppose it's because medieval rulers didn't have a map as precise as ours in mind when thinking about their territory. It was more a king ruling over dukes ruling over counts ruling over smaller nobles who managed some peasants, and someone could without problem have a vassal whose territory wasn't contiguous to his other vassal's territory.

you should rent out a stadium or go to some random field, give some free sticks and let people get in there and fight as 1 of 2 teams
maybe some colored shirts so you can pick targets more easily
