Why Some Nations Thrive and Others Crumble
What separates Denmark from Somalia? Why does one nation flourish while another collapses? These aren't accidents of geography or luck-they're the result of centuries-old institutional foundations that shape every aspect of political life today. The answer lies buried deep in history, in the way societies evolved from tribal bands into modern states. Understanding political order means tracing humanity's journey from our primate ancestors to the French Revolution, uncovering the hidden patterns that determine whether nations succeed or fail. This isn't just academic history-it's the blueprint for understanding why Afghanistan resists state-building, why corruption persists in wealthy nations, and why democratic backsliding threatens even established democracies.
