At the beginning of the book, Ralph is the leader, he's the one keeping order and the peace. He is the one who made the boys build a signal fire. But Jack becomes a bully to him and others. Over time the boys began acting like savages. Jack uses the fear of the boys to overthrow Ralph. the overthrowing symbolized ending of the order. The boys now act like savages. The universal theme would be riots. Where a mass number of people try to overthrow or destroy government officials.
