Dancing organisations

I was just wondering if anyone knows why Irish dance has so many organisations? If were all dancing the same dances to the same music, do we really need to have one big dance family split into many smaller families?I also don't understand why some organsations don't seem to like some of the other ones. Does anyone know why? Danielle xSee More
