Why does power centralize?

Power tends to centralize due to the efficiencies gained from streamlined decision-making and resource allocation. As organizations or societies grow, centralized authority can facilitate quicker responses to challenges and ensure consistency in policies and actions. Additionally, leaders may consolidate power to maintain control and stability, often justified by the need for coordination and unity. This tendency can create a feedback loop, where increased power attracts more authority to the center, further diminishing localized autonomy.
