With no communication to the outer world and no presence or influence of adults on the island, Ralph, Jack Merridew, and Piggy are forced to take initiative if the group of hopeless boys want to survive.

“ ‘And another thing. We can't have everybody talking at once. We'll have to have 'hands up' like at school’ ”(33). Ralph tried to stay civilized like they did outside of the islands, so he made a rule that everyone can speak for themselves and they could discuss about their ideas, but as the time went, Jack started to break the rules what Ralph made. If they didn’t broke the rules, there wouldn’t be fights against each other and everything would have gone alright. At the first few chapters of the book, Ralph tries to hear every one's voice and thoughts like civilized people, and not doing dictatorship. “I’ll give the conch to the next person to speak. He can hold it when he’s speaking”(33). This quote proves that Ralph really tried to stay the same like before, and for few chapters, he was able to keep peace. Ralph unlike Jack, was a democratic leader who tried to rule fairly by using Conch, which was used communicating with others and anybody could speak if they want to and other boys had to listen to him and don’t interrupt him.

The children landed uncharted island far from any semblance of police, parents, or even teachers. The island was almost like the “Neverland” that Disney taught us about years ago, but without Tinkerbell and a magical home with all their needs. Jack and the children in this adventure were in a heap of trouble. They were many, some smaller and some bigger (littleuns and bigguns). These kids had to organize themselves into some sort of unit, to more efficiently find a way home. That is where the trouble begins. When one or more humans come together, a hierarchy is always established. Similar to when one goes to a restaurant and the waitress only addresses our father for the majority of the tables decisions.

In William Golding’s novel “Lord of The Flies”, Jack Merridew is the character that takes leadership in the society and proves humanity is inherently evil by demonstrating human’s: selfish tendencies, competitive nature, and hopelessness.
