The peace society

A strong disadvantage of long-lasting peace is that, should anything happen which makes this come to an end, barely anybody knows how to fight and drive back the forces who've broke it. Peace has become a divine-given daily self-evidence - and the loss of it marks a huge trauma.
Not just that humans have no mental resources to handle and process that - they'll also be run over by the first and even most ill-equipped gang that comes along the way.

The problem is that piece becomes a goal and type of decoy for those who gets used to comfort in their lives. This way their life can deteriorate but they are scared that it can be worse if you start fighting even for the necessities and prefer to live miserable life for the sake of piece.

Sorry, I haven't commented much lately. Working all week long. Now catching up and realizing I have very little time before a new round of rat race starts. Alas.
