So on a topic ACTUALLY RELATED TO NATIONSTATES:

What are governments really for? To lead our society towards an ideal goal? To protect our individual rights? Can these two goals coexist successfully? Did we forget why we founded governments in the first place? Should we resort to anarchy until a new social order establishes itself? Do governments have a responsibility to nations other than their own?

Fire away!

Governments protect their citizens. They may not all do the best job but countries with a weak government are in chaos.
