However some people would argue that Social structure is the most important part of a civilization because Social structure is how most people even survive. In the Social Structure article it states, ¨If a builder build a house for someone, and does not construct it properly, and the house which he built, fall in and kill its owner, then that builder shall be put to death.¨ Without a stable home, one cannot survive although there may be challenges, Social structure is still a very important civilization and this is why many people may argue that Social structure is the best civilization.
