You can't tell me that tribe just decided "Yea this brah will be our leader" just like that.

According to chatbots, it began during Neolithic Revolution (beginning of agriculture). Farmers would exchange their surplus crops for other products/services, placing them at the top of the hierarchy. But you can't tell me the others couldn't just steal or even kill the farmer

Leaders are normal but the power was based around strength and experience but then more of it was placed to currencies, even then the strong would still dominate and oppress.

The most powerful aren't the gifted individuals, it's about forming teams and having lots of a currency meant you could form teams
