How were ethnic rivalries in countries like Syria and Iraq kept in check for decades?
Ethnic rivalries in Syria and Iraq were kept in check primarily through the use of REPRESSIVE GOVERNMENTAL ACTION. The leaders of Syria (Hafez al-Assad and his son Bashar al-Assad) and the leader of Iraq (Saddam Hussein), routinely massacred any who opposed their authoritarian rule and effectively kept the peace between the clans/tribes/groups by promising to bring the full force of the army down on any clan/tribe/group that promoted violence against another group.
With the toppling of Saddam Hussein in 2003 and the Syrian Civil War in 2011, these ethnic rivalries were able to resume since the national government was no longer capable of promising intense repression and violence against those who promote violence within the country.
