What was daily life like for a citizen under Anarchy?
If an anarchist group comes to power in a nation, chaos ensues. In this chaos, leaders will arise. Men believe, therefore they follow. The population will slowly gravitate toward different groups with leaders (often leaders of the revolution that resulted in the Anarchy), each group seeking a certain way of life based off of their beliefs/desires. As these groups inevitably strive for their way against the others when their desires conflict, a new government will evolve.
The word anarchy in a sentence?

What african country is in a state of anarchy or lacks a government?
You are likely thinking of SOMALIA, but this is not technically correct since Somalia has always had a government in Mogadishu. The issue has been expanding it to cover the entire country.
First off, Somalia has never been in anarchy. While Somalia comes close to being an anarchy because the national government cannot extend its power to the entire territory. The territory instead has innumerable local warlords who actively contest the authority of the national government. However, the presence of these warlords serves to be a form of recognized government, which is why Somalia is more properly classified as a failed state (a state where the national government cannot compete with local warlords to the extent that the local warlords control more than the national government).
As for why Somalia is a failed state, this was not "introduced" by anyone. This was a direct result of the infighting an disagreements between the various rebel groups that effectively ousted dictator and strongman Siad Barre.

Is anarchy against Jesus Christ?
yes! Because Anarchy means total chaos and God represents peace and stability. I hope that answers your question. Not necessarily. Anarchy comes from Greek and means "no rulers". It refers to a society without hierarchy, not chaos. Depending on your religion and your interpretation of it anarchy can be good or bad. Leo Tolstoy was a famous Christian anarchist.' No, anarchy is what he said ^^^ means no rulers. Which in turn means government. But there are different types of anarchy. Some do not have different names most are just categorized under Anarchy. There are Green Anarchists which means, to not have any rulers and live off the land and do without technology, putting us back into hunter-gatherer days. =). Some anarchist believe in the rule No Gods, No masters. Key part of that sentence being No Gods. But most do not believe in a god because it is still the idea of having a master. But long story short anarchy means against government and atheism is to not believe in god. Answer Anarchy actually refers to a deliberate resistance to order and not an embracement of chaos. Further, the first answer does not elucidate which God is in question. God represents both order, freedom, oppression, revenge, love, hate and many other contradictory characteristics. The typical Christian God, once stripped of middle-class characteristics such as gender and a big white beard, is a contradiction in terms and his characteristics have been ascribed by men over many different generations and political periods. This is not to say that God does not exist, just to say that the biblical representation of him is so erroneous and contradictory and politically slanted and drawn from more than one religion (Christianity AND Judaism) that one might successfully argue that God IS anarchy.

Anarchy simply means without ruler. It is a form of government without official rules and formal punishments for breaking them. It is a political theory with many schools of thought, ranging from Communist Anarchy, to fully Capitalist Anarchy, to Primitive Anarchy and everywhere in between.
Actually, anarchy (in terms of political science) means a complete lack of formal government. There may be a de facto form of governance occurring, but there is no actual legalgovernment framework. Thus, there are no laws of any sort, and all governance is informal, generally in the form of either complete consensus (as in either a communal or direct democracy style) or authoritarian (via a single or group strongman concept).
What does an upside down anarchy sign mean?
The Circle-A is almost certainly the best-known present-day symbol for anarchy. It is a monogram that consists of the capital letter "A" surrounded by the capital letter "O". The letter "A" is derived from the first letter of "anarchy" or "anarchism" in most European languages and is the same in both Latin and Cyrillic scripts. The "O" stands for order. Together they stand for "Anarchy is Order," the first part of a Proudhon quote.
The "A" does not stand for anarchy. It stands for Autonomous - self-governance, not subject to control from the outside. The A/O, then, stands for Autonomous Order, which is Anarchism.

Compare and contrast anarchy with democracy?
There is no difference. Anarchy means that there is no government. Any for of that word is still going to mean the same thing it just might be worded differently. Such as Anarchist. This is someone that is against the government. It pretty much means the same thing. Just worded differently.
AnswerThere is a difference:
* Anarchy ("without ruler") is a state of affairs: If there is no police, boss, government or other authority, just each man and woman for him/herself, you have anarchy.
* Anarchism is the ideology or political philosophy saying that government etc. is unnecessary (or even harmful) and that anarchy is better.
You can have one without the other. Anarchy without anarchism could for example be a temporary breakdown of normal law and order after a natural disaster or at the boundaries of a war zone.

What problems if any might arise from anarchy?
anarchy is bad because without government we would have pretty much nothing, no services to our country, state or our community. anyone could do anything and get away with it because we wouldn't have laws!!
More specifically, a state of Anarchy is defined as one without any government. Citizens may band together for various purposes, but there is no common government (and, thus, no law).
Given the rather self-centered and greedy natural character of human beings (particularly in large concentrations), any situation without some sort of overall control or law quickly degenerates into violence. Human beings have proven themselves to be unable to live together without some sort of master authority (with enforcement powers). No human society lives in anarchy - even the smallest and most primitive tribes have some sort of authority structure, which is government by another name.
As to why Anarchy is bad, ask yourself this: if you could do whatever you wanted to, with no consequences to you from a "higher" authority (e.g. you could hit someone, and while they might hit you back, no police officer would intervene, and no one would be charged with a crime), what would you do? Now, how would the world be if everyone could do whatever they wanted to anytime?
That's why anarchy is bad.
No, but this is a brain teaser. Anarchy is the "absence of government" or absence of laws. So the existence of anarchy would make anything legal, including itself. Most Western countries allow the expression of anarchist philosophy under the right to freedom of speech. However, most prohibit attempting to disrupt or obstruct the operations of their governments. Inciting others to physically oppose lawful actions of any government is also a crime.
