It's true that the top of society tends to be dominated by the Lawful (as well as really large communities - cities, large towns, etc) - but that doesn't mean that the ordinary citizenry are. Most people don't live in a city, they live in smallish communities in the country. It's the fact that cities and their rulers tend to be the movers and shakers, that creates the illusion of humanity being on average Lawful.

It's worth remembering that TN isn't most people - it's just the most common alignment. It can be just slightly more common than the next most common alignments are.

Why is it not letting me quote your quote? It alone seems to clear up so much about Alignment.
