Civilized

What makes people civilized? Lack of government can make a people group unorganized and therefore uncivilized. When a people group has no education system they will tend to be illiterate. When people are illiterate mass communication becomes very difficult, as does a legal system, because the people cannot read their laws. A government without written laws can very easily bend the laws to profit themselves, and their own agendas, therefore corrupting the government and obviously make it no longer civilized. Borders also are very important for a people group to be civilized. If a nation does not have borders, then there will be constant warring with neighboring countries over land on a community level, which would be very uncivilized.
