What is inertial forces?

Hello

Can someone explain to me what is inertial forces, and why is it that its attributes are the same as weight?

Weight is caused by gravitational field, which field causes inertial forces?

Regards

Once you say inertia causes a force you go off the track.

I think you are taking it off track, I am talking about principle of equivalence, this is regarded as remarkable coincidence.

Inertial mass or mass is caused by higgs field, an incomplete theory
Gravitatinal mass is caused by gravitational field, another incomplete theory.

Why both the theories are incomplete, that sounds like a remarkable coincidence about another remarkable coincidence.
