Here's some trivia for you!

Do you know why kings used to sit on thrones? Interestingly, only people from the royalty or nobility sat on chairs in the medieval times. People belonging to lower social status usually sat on stools, and when in the presence of their superior, they just stood.

The general population did not use chairs commonly till the 16th century. Before that, people sat on rocks or wooden benches. So, the oldest known chairs are Egyptian in origin. They are ceremonial chairs dating back to 5,000 years ago.

The social hierarchy they made based on race and gender..

The Loss of Humanity

When a human has a complete disregard for another human’s life that they are ruining intentionally without reason, that is when you know our species has truly lost its place as an alpha species. This inhumane need to display superiority is disgusting but is finding a way to integrate itself in our everyday lives. It needs to be addressed as it consistently causes us to move backwards as a whole species. If other many successful species which survive without the intelligence we possess do not appreciate this sense of social hierarchy why must we strive to achieve it? I will ask anybody who had idiotically ruined somebody’s hard work to enhance their own morale, why? If it was to make you feel better does it make it morally correct? If it wasn’t then I feel the need to question the monster that is inside of you. Community is something that gives humans a sense of belonging which we theoretically require to ever achieve self-actualisation. Doesn’t that say something about us today trying to rip up any glimmer of community that shines? 

Do we need to be independent or interdependent as a society?

Ceased by this composition, I was. The captured moment, opposing movement, the gender balance, the contradiction of numbers from the top to the bottom, the tower of protected crates and the snatching red. 

Thought provoking indeed.
