During Redania's Most Wanted, the actual requirement is that you search Philippa's hideout and find the Polished crystal. However, you could fail the quest by never returning to Radovid. The earliest forms of the state emerged whenever it became possible to centralize power in a durable way. Agriculture and a settled population have been attributed as necessary conditions to form states. [65] [66] [67] [68] Certain types of agriculture are more conducive to state formation, such as grain (wheat, barley, millet), because they are suited to concentrated production, taxation, and storage. [65] [69] [70] [71] Agriculture and writing are almost everywhere associated with this process: agriculture because it allowed for the emergence of a social class of people who did not have to spend most of their time providing for their own subsistence, and writing (or an equivalent of writing, like Inca quipus) because it made possible the centralization of vital information. [72] Bureaucratization made expansion over large territories possible. [73] Weber, Max (1991). From Max Weber: Essays in Sociology. Psychology Press. p.78. ISBN 978-0-415-06056-1.

225 - straightforward (100%) Crimea is not the only region where Russian authorities are attempting to make abortions less accessible. On 3 August, the Republic of Mordovia in central Russia adopted a vaguely worded law banning the “promotion” of abortion. Hay, Colin (2001). Routledge Encyclopedia of International Political Economy.

A legal loophole may, for now at least, provide some breathing space for women keen to exercise their bodily autonomy in the occupied Ukrainian region. The decision made by private clinics in Crimea doesn’t extend to those in the Crimean city of Sevastopol, which has a separate legal status as a city of federal importance. This may result in Sevastopol becoming the abortion capital of Crimea, as international studies have shown that making it more difficult to terminate a pregnancy does not lead to a decrease in demand for the procedure. The Krasnodar region, which is close to northeastern Crimea, may also experience an influx of women wanting an abortion — unless, of course, its clinics follow the Crimean example. The patriarchy speaks 158 - very modest (71%) Anarchism is a political philosophy which considers the state and hierarchies to be unnecessary and harmful and instead promotes a stateless society, or anarchy, a self-managed, self-governed society based on voluntary, cooperative institutions. Marx's early writings portrayed the bourgeois state as parasitic, built upon the superstructure of the economy, and working against the public interest. He also wrote that the state mirrors class relations in society in general, acting as a regulator and repressor of class struggle, and as a tool of political power and domination for the ruling class. [112] The Communist Manifesto claims the state to be nothing more than "a committee for managing the common affairs of the bourgeoisie." [109]

The word state and its cognates in some other European languages ( stato in Italian, estado in Spanish and Portuguese, état in French, Staat in German and Dutch) ultimately derive from the Latin word status, meaning "condition, circumstances". Latin status derives from stare, "to stand", or remain or be permanent, thus providing the sacred or magical connotation of the political entity.

Importantly, Tilly makes the case that war is an essential part of state-making; that wars create states and vice versa. [32] The term " phase" is sometimes used as a synonym for state of matter, but it is possible for a single compound to form different phases that are in the same state of matter. For example, ice is the solid state of water, but there are multiple phases of ice with different crystal structures, which are formed at different pressures and temperatures. A small sliver of the Wu Xing Compass' power can be directed precisely where needed, given the right motivation. Strange matter: A type of quark matter that may exist inside some neutron stars close to the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff limit (approximately 2–3 solar masses). May be stable at lower energy states once formed.
