At some points, I wonder how the world would be without a governance, I don't care to know about histories of how politics and government has been in existence before these days.
My interest is ... Could we (humans) had lived a peaceful soul here on earth without a governing body and no laws?
If people lived in this world without governance, some classes of people would treat other people like forest dogs. For example, even within the current regime, some people harm other people face to face, so they would have been worse without the regime. But the only danger was that extraordinary people and especially women could not retain their honor. People used to live forever, wherever you see there is lack of governance, the tribal people are always more evil.
Where there is no government there is no law and no rule. So if there were no laws, people would behave like animals. This is why government and the rule of law is a very important social element for the human race. Even in this generation, there is no end to anarchy in many countries where the government system is weak or there is no rule of law. People commit crimes if they are not punished then people become more criminal.
