Abstract
This research shows that how and what role geography, environment and genetical basis
[instincts] of human beings plays in making history, forming culture of humanity and the pathways of
individual and collective socio-politics along with human evolution and the journey towards civilization.
Jared Diamond theorized this hypothesis with his observations in European boundaries on behalf of the
comparison of presently prevailing [day by day deep-rooting] blind modernism and past natural growth of
humanity. He presents his thoughts that how human beings evolved from his forefathers who are very
much genetically close to their cousins, the chimpanzee and still what similarities they have [show
through their actions] with them on behalf of their genetic nearness. Similarly, he also points out the
dissimilarities between these two cousin creatures, which is the Wisdom/Reason [possessed by the human
beings only]; and this distinction has mainly been used for inhuman development of guns, germs and
steel. He also describes the differences in human societies and their psychological approach towards
nature and with this approach what they have found, what they have lost and most importantly what
would be the ways through which the completion of journey towards Collapse can be halted and
prolonged only, not stopped.
Here, the objective is to show the universality and very much suitable [relevant] precedent
oriented human activities [of almost all societies] through Jared Diamond’ s theory as well as to prove its
validity by applying on a very small area e.g. District Chiniot of Western Punjab, located in Pakistan. The
focus is to find the results those will contribute the nature friendly and Collapse-halted development of
this local area if Diamond’ s theory is applied here.
