Very interesting. Especially since these last days I've been researching the early days of Philadelphia (in the 1600s) in the US. When William Penn and others founded the colony they had to establish order. And so vigilante groups and "private committees" formed to deal with security and things like fires and so on...
It's interesting to see how early societies and communities get to form, as I enjoy making comparisons with what happened centuries ago in the "new world" and what is happening here on Steemit on other early social platforms online.
