The natural reaction to look for government ?

Is it a natural reaction to want organization for the human race? Organization is supposed to be the difference between regular animals and humans. Humans symbolize structure and animals symbolize chaos. You see the natural need for government in Lord of The Flies when Piggy immediately seeks organization by calling everybody with the conch for a meeting and asks for the boys to choose a leader.Why does he do that: human instinct. With a government though, comes the chaos of looking for that leader. In the book they form two different countries or groups the choir and the larger group.This usually doesn't work because the two leaders will always fight for more power and only one will come out on top. An example of this is President Andrew Jackson and the leader of the Cherokees. One ended up more powerful because two leaders can't co-exist without one overthrowing the other. Animals have a natural instinct for stability structure and government as well. An example of this is is the wolf pack there is always an alpha male who is in charge. As we see the animal instinct and the human instinct the is no difference between the two worlds because they both long for stability.
