#Anarchy is not simply living without a state, it means living without coercion by any other group or social institution, the latter created cooperatively. In the Haiti case, the state's monopoly on violence was only handed over to a criminal group. This isn't anarchy, although most of the media sell it to you that way. Don't believe everything you read

Anarchy is spontaneous order and voluntary forms of governance. What people think anarchy is is mere chaos

Ignorance is bold

Siezing power through coersion, whether its informal through armies, gangs and mafias, or formal through kingdoms, theocracies, republics or democracies, is a persistent threat. The state of anarchy is always temporary until one of those comes along and promises protection in exchange for a fee, voluntarily or not.

Everything is temporary, nothing is eternal. That case, seen as just another company, from my perspective ANCAP would probably disappear, it would generate little confidence in the market and at least as a defense company it would not be able to survive, no one would hire its own executioner
