If there was no government to govern us (humans)

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.

If there is no government or rules and regulations, we will just be like sheep without shepherd, and it can leads to war and a lots of damages and the rate of corruption will be high, we will be like Sodom and Gomorrah, even if our government is not really doing the proper thing we want but at least they are bringing us in order, we are really way wayward and there are things we can't do  because of the penalty involved, so the fear of being jail or kill has really be of help of those who wants to live on their own.

You can imagine a free world whereby everyone is having the opportunity of doing what he likes even when what they are doing is wrong, we should have our freedom but there must be a limit to how we can have it and in the aspects we should have, that is why there are constituted authorities whereby they are attached with the responsibility of being in charge of the people's affairs, what they should do and not, plan and regulate peace and order among the people in the society.

I think that the existence of society is impossible without management. Even animals have a leader who establishes his own laws in a group of animals and the rest look up to him, listen to him and respect him. And a pack of animals chooses the best of their kind to entrust him with the management of the team and even the viability of their. This was probably the case with people in distant, distant times. People chose the strongest, the most resilient, the most intelligent to entrust him with the life of the entire society. Unfortunately, different times have come today and even a physically and mentally weak person can manage. Sometimes, a frankly old sick person)

Situation could be different then. Don't forget that are also bad people in our society.  They want to spread negativity and one violence in society. Without government, you can't expect an discipline from people. Cause people of a rules and regulation because of law, punishment. So situation will be more difficult without government. Even who will distribute everything properly? They were will be many opinions. That'll be problem too

Throughout the ages people have stayed together to stay free from disorder or anarchy. Again the breathing system has been introduced to maintain discipline within the same tribe. If not people will indulge in anarchy because human character is prone to crime when given a chance, but I will not include everyone. Moreover to perform any big work one must give instructions from the front. For that government or governance is essential.

Humans are hard to control even with rules and regulations been spelt out for them to abide by, don’t you imagine how bad it will be if we live on without any rules, it’s going to be bad and brutal. I am very sure that from the inception of the world we live in today, rules have been there and if they were not in any circumstance before now, we wouldn’t have gotten to the stage that we are today.

The governing body of a state or country is the best thing to ever happen in the surface of the earth, without them, we would have been living a life of despair, fear and lot of uncertainties without a peace of mind with it. Despite these rules, see the way the life is still going for the humans. Let’s just get things straight, without these rules, the world will be the worst place to set foot in the universe.

We have the laws of nature to govern us humans. Man-made laws are simply humans governing humans. Sometimes it is difficult for people to understand what the laws of nature are. So, smarter people try to train the dumber ones. It's this training that becomes human law rather than natural law.

it is based on a corrupt mindset that will make the world to exist without governance we should go back to scripture and they ask if God has no governance or rules and the regulation given to Adam first man created to govern whatever him seems for Earth

Governments are a nescessary eveil and democracy is the lesser of these evils. It is when governments get too large and solve everything with more regulations and rules to burden the yoke of a nations citizens then government has becomeoverbearing and no longer legitimate.

I think Belgium went without a government for a long while and things functioned the same as always as it had robust institutions that were not corrupt from the inside out.

Greed,corruption,extremist policies etc lead to bad governance. Also government officials taking their orders from private members clubs and corporations instead of its citizenry make governments no longer acceptable in a democracy.

Governments duty is to protect the rights of its citizens in accordance with the nations constitution and create opportunities that lead to a better standard of living for all. It is not governments duty to implement policies that infringe upon the rights of any of its citizens.

Democracy is failing all across the world due to corrupt governments being in bed with thinktanks and business interests.

government does not think of anything positive to us government come only do things that is not good so when looking at it I know very well that government of today or tomorrow I have things they do so therefore we don't need to be depending on government because they don't have good intention to us as the citizens

[Jonyshake71]

Nah. Cause we human aren't good enough to live peacefully. If we get any chance, then Its our nature to take advantage from it cause people also have greed in their heart. And of course there'll be always some bad soul, who are born to brake the rules and regulations and got entertainment by violence, lazy people want to have others peice of bread by any cost , without working. So without any leaders, law and rules, it isn't possible to live happily in the world.

[Hopila]

In my own humble opinion.I think it wouldn't have been easy and possible for humans to live peacefully and harmoniously in a society without the presence of government,because looking at the nature which human being were built or created, it's very clear to say that human can not live nor function optimally without a proper constituted authority.

The words are very good - we humans are not very suitable to live in peace because we have greed in us, we have in us the desire to get more, we have in us the right of others to enrich our wealth. Since so much is in us and everything destroys the rights of others, it is important for government and government to discipline us.

[Ever-young]

Let's imagine a society without government rule and laws, everyone will be so free to some extend. Sometimes we humans use our freedom carelessly without thinking twice and it can hurt other feelings or rather it can lead to fighting or conflicts, every rule has a purpose and every leader today is set to guide the standard of the society so any society lacking a good government will face crisis and without a government the society cannot move forward.

Yes, that's right, without government the society can't actually move forward which will also make the people to be corrupt without having any fear in them because they know they are free. So whichever thing they do they can't be punished and this will make them to be hurting others without considering if they are okay with it or not.

Even though our leaders are not really helping matter, at least they are trying to hold people together which is very difficult to handle.

It depends on what context you apply those principles and comments to. There are leaders who are in their position of power to honor the oath they took when getting their position of power, to protect and work for the well being of all the people of their country, regardless of their political affiliation or way of thinking,.they keep people together because it is their job and they want to do a good job. On the other hand, we have bad leaders, corrupt presidents and dictators which do not actually want to keep society together because their sense of duty or because they swore an oath to their country and constitution, but rather because it is part of their red of kleptocracy to keep people in certain positions and keep order at some level, but out what it is legal by the constitution.
an example would be the extrajudicial executions which are ordered by people in positions of power, those actions are illegal, but are done to keep people at bay from doing certain things... it is a very sad situation to live in a place those horrible things have become common.

If humans are meant to live without governance,then the world will look like a ship that doesn't have a sailor.Every area of life there's a leader let's trace down to the smallest unit in the society the family,even in the family there is leader which happens to be the breadwinner of a family.In our different religion there is a leader to govern the affairs of people.If governance are lacking then affairs of humans will be misguided.

It's very bad even for a common class room when it lacks a representative. Infact, it is a good idea for even a group of people at least three people upward, not to go on a journey except that they should have a leader. But don't forget, when choosing a leader, don't just choose leader for leadership sake, but a good one. A leader that leads by example. A leader that shows sympathy, kindness and love for his followers. A leader that wishes his followers good. A leader with vision and mission. A leader with integrity, transparency and the one that will serve a purpose for the humanity. And finally, a leader that leads with wisdom.

If there be a world without government, I think the world will be far better than what we have presently in some of the African countries. There will be peaceful coexistence among people. I think the idea of communism will be invoke and the people will not lack. The aspect I suspect will be problem is in terms of security. When the security of life and properties is in the hand of individual and not a centralized power, there will be problem of abuse. If there is no government, every family will have to train up someone who is brief enough to secure the family. This will make the most strongest families to be the gods of every community. You will wakw one day and discover that your sibling is killed and you have nothing to do about it.

But then even if there is no government, there will be elected individuals to take decisions and make laws and in other words this individuals will still be referred to as government.

Human are the most difficult beings or creatures in the world and of such there is need for supremacy because without that humans will continue to go into conflicts, war and disagreement all the time because everyone will definitely be doing things to their satisfaction since there will be no law and order in the society and just like the heart of humans is filled with evil thoughts that is also how their deeds will be as well so government must continue to exist in order for there to be orderliness in the society.
             Politics over the years have been very biased and sentimental but it doesn't mean we should discard it totally because doing so will only result to more deeper pains in human existence so despite how unkind or unfair the government have been towards her people, we cannot completely live together in peace and harmony if there is no government.

Choosing a leader is very difficult because you would not know the real intentions of the contenders. Every groups need a leader and since the governments are our leaders we need them to help guide us.

When there are no leaders guiding us, we are going to be out of order because everybody will want to do things in their own way and we can not get anything done when everybody is being their own boss.
We need leaders to help put things in the right places and any country with the right selection of leaders, they always have a good country and the things in the country are always moving in the right direction. Leaderless countries are always in war and same when the leadership are being taken wrongly from the people. You shouldn't force yourself as a leader on people but allow the people to choose you to lead them.
