Writing and speech are pretty shitty tools for expressing layered, or interrelated concepts. The serial stream of words doesn't even match how our brains can process and synthesize sensory experience.
Over the relatively short span of geological time that people have lived on Earth, humans have organized their efforts in a number of ways. In the present time, in the western world, we live in societies that are structured around corporations, finance, and government bureaucracies. Governments and corporations can organize people over large geographical areas because of telecommunications and petroleum powered transportation, and also because there are people who want to "work" within those types of organization.
Corporate organizations are another form of the ancient organization the "city".
