The Gene Swarm is a very broad subject in itself, it probably can be called an entity by human ape language it all depends on your point of view (if narrow or broad). We human apes are but a very small part of this entity, and government even smaller part of it and far more temporary, than the human apes.
The Gene Swarm, Human Apes, and Governments

Where are you going with this?

(Mys,
I'm putting it in pieces.)
The Gene Swarm probably extends itself quite deeply in the earths crust(no one knows for sure how deeply yet) and even into what we call earth atmosphere how high up we don’t know, maybe into what we apes call outer space.
We human apes are but a very small branch of it, I think one reason why we have more imaginative brains than the brains of our closely related cousin apes and started making fire and sophisticated stone tools, may have happened this way:
Some where in our past we apes, were forced to eat plants that didn’t taste good perhaps we were starving and in a desperation, we ate grass or some other DMT containing plants even mushrooms. This may have gone on for some time due to a lack of food that we liked the taste of(plants containing psychedelics don't taste very good) the psychedelics cause us to break out of our patterned way of thinking, which lead us to discover more about the world around us and how to exploit it more. We apes love to have our our lesure, and not spending all our time just to get food to survive.

Take a good look at our closely related cousins, in this gene swarm, the chimps, they live in troupes and are on the move, and so were we even with our bigger brains, and ability to make rather state of the art stone tools and fire. Eventually we figured out what seeds were, and how we could plant them and have food more plentifully, that came long after, our great hunting skills. When we learned this planting skill we apes who were good at it or like it more started to settled down instead of on the move traveling in troupes. As time went on we started to form villages.
As time went on some dominated, it is hard to be so simple in explaining how they got control of villages, the reasons must be complex, some helpful, some greedy. Eventually though some started to raid other near by villages and extend their control farther.

They say that forming of civilization started in what we apes call Mesopotamia, and empire building kings soon followed, it has it good and bad points, just like the ever traveling troupe life does, one bad point IMO is the slaughter of fellow apes came in greater numbers the bigger these empires grew. As time went on the weapons improved, and the ones that had the best weapons and best warring strategies and who were most aggressive of the apes grew even more. We eventually had what we apes call world powers.
Evolution of this gene swarm entity is a continuing process, branches of it become extinct through lack of adaptation(survival of the fittest) others branch out to form still other branches. What role these governments now a part of the human apes branch of the gene swarm play in our survival or extinction , or if we will evolve something more beneficial, less wasteful remains to be seen.

While idlely watching one of those programmes on the Discovery Channel. Think it was dealing with finding some bones or whatever, the usual thing.
The scientist they were speaking to said something along the lines.
"We no longer think that humans descended from apes. Humans are a separate species from the ape. Any similarity in the genes we think can be put down to an early human mating with an ape."
Is this the first case of bestiality?

An,
"We no longer think that humans descended from apes. Humans are a separate species from the ape. Any similarity in the genes we think can be put down to an early human mating with an ape."
I sincerely doubt it.

That wasn't a scientist! Humans not only are descended from apes - we are apes. We are more closely related to chimpanzees than chimpanzees are to gorillas.
Is it possible you misheard what was said? It's true that humans aren't descended from chimpanzees but that both species are descended from a relatively recent common ancestor, one which would certainly be described as an ape if it was still around.

It was a scientist,
And I didn't mishear in fact it made me pay more attention. But they went onto bone structure etc.
I thought at time "This is new, wonder what makes them think that.?"

Truth. Every last word of it.
We will evolve past government. It's already happening. It's being spoken about. The foundation is being laid.
