Somalia seems to be pretty close to anarchy. Also maybe Afghanistan after the US exited?
- nickdothutton 3y agoI think Somalia is close, as close as any. At one point a couple of years ago I thought Venezuela might take the “prize” or even El Salvador, although the leadership there is cleaning house with a very stiff broom currently. Afghanistan, no, although the national army collapsed within a couple of days, there was a strong and organised force to take over.
- ipaddr 3y agoAfghanistan is firmly under control. Somalia as well. Those pirates are organized and leadership structures exist. South Africa anarchy will not last and turn into factions
- bequanna 3y agoAh, that is an interesting theory: anarchy will always result in spontaneous organization of factions, usually repressive and holding power by pure force.
