    About this ebook

    State of the state

    This is the story of two distinctly similar colonies of Ants conditioned to live together as one colony. They discovered that in their likeness resides a cruel streak of competitiveness that makes them more different than they are alike. Ants and people are more alike than they appear.

    Ants are biologically classed as Insects; ‘Insecta.’ They are ordered as ‘Hymenoptera,’ a group that includes bees and wasps; the resemblance within this group being that they all live in colonies and are therefore social communities.
    They are all of the ‘Formicidae’ family, found in almost all parts of the world but mostly in habitats most prominent in the tropics. Every species of Ant is social, unlike other hymenopterans.

    Ants are different from other hymenopterans by their bent frame, elbowed limbs, their antennae and their indented abdomen forming narrow waists. Most Ants are principally omnivores; they eat almost anything. They eat seedlings, fruits, sugary liquids, flesh and even feast on fellow Ants.

    Ant colonies are varied in sizes, according to species or conditions. Colonies can be as small as only a few and as large as millions of insects. Ants flourish in all soil based regions, amongst damp rotting wood, plant litter and very diverse niches and habitats, as well as in people’s houses.

    Up high from the skies, where people instinctively select their divinities and deities to be, people would appear like tiny ants down below. Certainly to the respective lofty mythical principalities and mystical personifications of supreme entities humans eternally suck up to, people are indeed like ants in their creative devices as in their appearance.
