It's a repeated contention of mine that a civilization's ability to live in harmony is independent of its choice of political organization type. That being said, I think there are some civilizations that come to somewhat more stable harmonies than others- the Incans, for example, seemed to have a quite harmonious relationship with nature, or at least a stable one. Likewise with the pre-Colonial Balinese and a few others. But yeah, for the most part the vast majority of civilizations have utterly failed to achieve balance with nature, to the point where these exceptions might simply be proving the rule.
