On the Laws of Nature for Humans

What then is the mode of survival of man? What factors have made it so, and what do they mean for us today? Our species, Homo Sapiens Sapiens, developed in eastern Africa as one of many bipedal hominids per current scientific knowledge on the matter. We survived in the plains and forests by using our intellect and gaining and distributing knowledge about the world and the methods we could use to prosper in it. Unlike the tiger, or numerous other species, humans like other primates live in groups. Connection, cooperation and the dynamics of coexistence are some of our most prominent features. Along with these, humans rely heavily on our intelligence to adapt to the many environments we inhabit. We span from tropical rain forests to arid deserts and every climate in between, and have formed civilizations on every continent.
