Indeed, the most profound upheavals begin with a raw, almost primal disruption, only to settle into a new framework that seems almost inevitable once the old order is stripped away. Think of the French Revolution, where the storming of the Bastille gave way to the Constitution of 1791, or the American Revolution, which moved from the Boston Tea Party to a written Bill of Rights. History shows that once the old constraints dissolve, humanity tends to reorganize—often into structures that resemble the very systems they rebelled against, but with a deliberate attempt to codify the lessons learned. It’s a curious, almost natural progression from disorder to deliberate order.

You're right. The pattern feels almost inevitable, like history polishing a mirror that never changes. But each new set of rules carries traces of the old, so while the surface may look fresh, the underlying shape often stays the same. If we don't notice that, we risk repeating the same mistakes in the guise of progress.
