“The exponents of this theory hold that wars and aggressions by some powerful tribe were the principal factors in the creation of the state. They rely on the oft-quoted saying “war begot the king” as the historical explanation of the origin of the state…
After establishing the state by subjugating the other people in that place, the chief used his authority in maintaining law and order and defending the state from aggression from the outside. Thus, the force was responsible not only for the origin of the state but for the development of the state also.”
-Dr. Deepika Gahatraj
