 A society or a human society is a group of people related to each other through persistent relations such as social status, roles and social networks or a large social grouping that shares the same geographical territory and is subject to the same political authority and dominant cultural expectations. The term society came from the Latin word societas, which in tum was derived from the noun socius ("comrade, friend and ally") thus used to describe a bond or interaction among parties that are friendly, or at least civil. Human societies are characterized by patterns of relationships (social relations) between individuals sharing a distinctive culture and institutions; a given society may be described as the sum total of such relationships among its constituent members. Used in the sense of an association, a society is a body of individuals outlined by the bounds of functional interdependence, possibly comprising characteristics such as national or cultural identity, social solidarity, language or hierarchical organization.

Like other groupings in society allows its members to achieve needs or wishes they could not fulfill alone; the social fact can be identified, understood or specified within a circumstance that certain resources, objectives, requirements or results, are needed and utilized in an individual manner and for individual ends, although they can't be achieved, gotten or fulfilled in an individual manner as well, but, on the contrary, they can be gotten only in a collective, collaborative manner; namely, team work becomes the valid functional means, to individual ends which an individual would need to have but isn't able to get. More broadly, a society is an economic, social or industrial infrastructure, made up of a varied collection of individuals. Members of a society may be from different ethnic groups. A society may be a particular ethnic group, such as the Saxons; a nation state, such as Bhutan; a broader cultural group, such as a Western society. The word society may also refer to an organized voluntary association of people for religious, benevolent, cultural, scientific, political, patriotic, or other purposes. A "society" may even refer to a social organism such as an ant colony or any cooperative aggregate.

  

Title: The Nature and Structure of Human Society

Precis:

A human society is a collective group of individuals connected by enduring relationships, shared geographical territories, and governed by the same political authority and cultural norms. The term "society" originates from the Latin word "societas," meaning a bond between allies or friends. Societies are defined by the patterns of social relations among their members, characterized by cultural identity, social solidarity, language, and hierarchical structures. The essence of society lies in its ability to allow individuals to achieve goals that are unattainable alone, emphasizing the importance of teamwork. Societies can range from specific ethnic groups to entire nations or broader cultural groups, and the term can also describe organized associations or cooperative organisms like ant colonies.
