What is a Great Corporation? The key components of a great society are good economic values, strong government, and ensuring that citizens are happy. However, these companies have the opposite. These societies have terrible laws and rules, citizens living in poverty and go through a lot of wars, but they lose them all. Leaving almost all of their soldiers dead. A minority of societies are treated unfairly, citizens rebel, die, with no food, water or even shelter for them. The reason why large societies collapse is because of wars, poverty of citizens and bad rules and laws of these societies. The first reason large corporations collapse is because of the wars they fought. When the United States went into Iraq, they had weapons of mass destruction that we had to get, otherwise the whole world could disappear, or be involved in a Third World War. They responded by killing thousands of soldiers. When we found the weapons of mass destruction, we then killed their leader Saddam Hussein. The article states that "The United Nations Special Representative in Iraq [Sergio Vieira de Mello] and at least 16 other people died on Tuesday in a bomb explosion that destroyed the organization's headquarters in Baghdad." (http://thinkprogress.org/report/iraq-timeline/# by: ThinkProgress) This was one of the main reasons we returned to Iraq. We had to solve a problem. A problem from which it can be very dangerous and difficult to escape. In ancient Greece, Sparta was very good and well trained in warfare, which helped them conquer some areas. After long journeys, their soldiers took a toll, which brought caution to the city of Sparta. An army surrounded the entire valley, trapping Sparta and razing it to the ground. Germany during WWII was fighting many wars to conquer… paper… the rules set by the government are horrible. Large societies when key areas are not strong, such as the laws enacted by the leader were unjust, citizens living on the streets with little food, water and shelter and the wars they went through. The bad laws of these governments consisted of treating the minority unfairly. Make their laws lesser than the majority. Also treat people of lower social status with fewer rights just or unjust (being taxed higher). Wars have destroyed areas. After losing a war, you have to pay the taxes that the war caused. Your land area is also destroyed. The poverty of your citizens makes your economy look poor. Putting people on the streets and doing nothing about it. These are the main key points of why big companies fail. Works CitedLearntci.com, http://thinkprogress.org/report/iraq-timeline/# by: ThinkProgress
