### Exactly. Why do anarchies inevitably evolve into states?
That's the $1 million question. Is it inevitable? Possibly... Does that
mean we should just give up? Maybe not. Death mgiht be inevitable too, yet
I'll still keep searching for immortality.:)

Wouldn't historical states evolve from the family? Every primitive people I
ever heard of were organized around "the old man" or "the old lady." From
that starting point all you need is an egomaniac with a sword and you soon
have a state.
