Answer:

To provide safety.

Explanation:

Political philosopher Thomas Hobbes believed that people accepted to be ruled by a government because a government was able to provide safety to humans. Without government, laws, and justice, we could all take advantage of each other in any way we wanted. Moreover, anyone could take advantage of us as well. In order to protect ourselves, and avoid living in constant fear and violence, we establish a government that can exercise control over us and punish criminals. This, in his opinion, is the most effective way of achieving peaceful relationships among humans.
