What is Society? Why Do We Have Society?

Society is a body of individuals living as members of the community. It is a considerably large number of people who interact and share a culture, and tend to live in the same geographical area.
Society is our "social home." To humans, society tends to be a secure and familiar shelter. We become comfortable with our own society, so much as that when we go into another society that speaks a different language we feel out of place and that we do not belong. Through the process of socialization ( the process by which we learn the rules and beliefs of society) we learn to find our way around.
Humans are people of interaction and social beings which is the main reason for the formation of a society. Since humans make up the society from it comes up social life. Without human interaction and social life there would be no society. Think about this- how would you dress or act when you go to a party if you had no influences from society? Society impacts a human being so much as to affect everything from the way you dress to the way you feel when in your community.
