Societies are groups of people living together, with their own laws and customs. Sometimes, a society can find itself in trouble due to economic, social, or political problems. This can cause a 'collapse', when the society stops being able to function. This could happen if the people in the society are too divided, or if they don't agree on how to solve their problems. It's like a game of Jenga - if too many pieces are pulled out, it will all come crashing down. To avoid this, societies need to work together and make good choices. They need to find ways to be more cooperative, come up with smart solutions to their problems, and treat each other with respect. If they do this, then they will be more likely to succeed.
