I would wager it's not that different to the pregidus tribes would face between tribes of the same species. I think the concept of belonging to something larger then your fellow tribes people is relatively modern.
well yeah, I don't think the two species really thought about each other as actual separate species back then, more like "not my tribe". pretty much. same with doing your own thing instead of...

pretty much. same with doing your own thing instead of trying to fit in (Social Survival Mammoth, anyone?).
It's often the most similar groups where you find the most intense rivalry.
