The theory of force has been advanced for two purposes: to explain how the State originated, and how it was maintained afterwards. According to this theory, the State is a child of force, that is, of aggression, war, conquest and subjugation. In the primitive ages, a strong man or king, with the support of his warriors, subjugated the weaker men of his tribe and established the political relation of command and obedience. Hence the saying: “War begat the king”. Such was the beginning of the State. A strong man enslaved the weaker men and became the chief of his tribe.<\/p>
