Convergent evolution is the independent evolution of similar features in species of different periods or epochs in time; right now, however, I am not talking about biology, but society.
There must be plenty of civilizations and cultures, nations and states that, despite being far apart in space and time, ended up developing in a similar way for some reason or another, either as a whole or in some facet of their society; what are some examples of this phenomenon, and why did it happen in that specific instance?
