 How did we get here?  
 Division (divide and conquer). The population and people of the respective countries, regions, villages and families no longer act and live as a community that is dependent on each other. We have allowed ourselves to be divided and given in to the illusion that we can manage on our own.
The community in a wolf pack is the guarantee for survival - therefore only the most capable and strongest will be allowed to lead the pack.
We, on the other hand, have degenerated into a collection of individuals. Individuals who live huddled together but do not form a community.
Without true communities, there will be no strong leaders.
