The gradual transformation of inland areas -- human plowing, horse plowing and equity incentives

TL;DR

This paper explores the historical progression of civilization and governance, proposing mathematical models to optimize societal stability, economic development, and equity through evolutionary insights from ancient to modern practices.

Contribution

It introduces a mathematical framework for understanding civilization evolution and governance strategies, emphasizing the transition from human to horse plowing and equitable wealth distribution.

Findings

Civilization stability is linked to economic benefits and suppression methods.

Mathematical models demonstrate how to achieve societal optimality.

Lognormal distribution can be used to adjust wealth gaps.

Abstract

Many modern areas have not learned their lessons and often hope for the wisdom of later generations, resulting in them only possessing modern technology and difficult to iterate ancient civilizations. At present, there is no way to tell how we should learn from history and promote the gradual upgrading of civilization. Therefore, we must tell the history of civilization's progress and the means of governance, learn from experience to improve the comprehensive strength and survival ability of civilization, and achieve an optimal solution for the tempering brought by conflicts and the reduction of internal conflicts. Firstly, we must follow the footsteps of history and explore the reasons for the long-term stability of each country in conflict, including providing economic benefits to the people and means of suppressing them; then, use mathematical methods to demonstrate how we can achieve the optimal solution at the current stage. After analysis, we can conclude that the civilization transformed from human plowing to horse plowing can easily suppress the resistance of the people and provide them with the ability to resist; The selection of rulers should consider multiple institutional aspects, such as exams, elections, and drawing lots; Economic development follows a lognormal distribution and can be adjusted by population mean and standard deviation. Using a lognormal distribution with the maximum value to divide equity can adjust the wealth gap.
