The power configuration of a large collective - be it a nation state , a corporation or social network - is a super complex model.. we don't have tools to even take a stab at it .. for example - it includes geographic location , weather , food , religious beliefs, education , resources under and above the ground , agro outputs .. I mean , we can't even know for sure the exact rate of inflation :-) determining the power system is way too far fetched.. # humility is the best startegy :-) .. it is as if the large collectives have their own consciousness.. way to complex for us mere mortals !

Few things we can learn from history though - a stable structure must evolve natively over many decades and sometimes centuries of back and forth .. and any attempt to suggest a better model from outside is always a disaster .. Spreading Monarchy ( as Brits did in India when they entered ) is as bad an idea as promoting democracy ( as they did when the left )
