    Yes, there are many similarities. Humans and insects tend to band together for protection and to maximize productivity.

    However, when humans colonize, they tend to retain their personal identity, and their specific roles and influences change throughout their lives.

    Insects tend to be genetically predisposed to their societal role and mostly adhere to that role throughout their life span.

    Insect are extremely organized, they have social roles that they are born with , such as some ants are the protectors and have larger clasps to defend the colony but no one rebels, there is an assumed order to ensure the survival of the colony, we have chaos.
