Cycle of order

The Cycle of order is as follows "Order leads to chaos, chaos leads to anarchy, anarchy leads to order..." or it can be seen as "Order is less than Chaos, Chaos is less than Anarchy, Anarchy is less than Order..."

If you know me in real life you've probably heard me say this on many occasions but I've never explained it. Well I'll Explain it now first I'll provide definitions to each of those words you should know what they mean but hey I figure that will just draw this out longer. According to m-w.com Order, Chaos, and Anarchy mean.

Order:
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Anglo-French ordre, from Medieval Latin & Latin; Medieval Latin ordin-, ordo ecclesiastical order, from Latin, arrangement, group, class; akin to Latin ordiri to lay the warp, begin
Definition 5b: a regular or harmonious arrangement the order of nature>

Chaos:
Pronunciation: 'kA-"äs
Function: noun
Etymology: Latin, from Greek
Definition: a state of utter confusion the chaos throughout the city a confused mass or mixture chaos of television antennas>

and lastly
Anarchy:
Pronunciation: 'a-n&r-kE, -"när-
Function: noun
Etymology: Medieval Latin anarchia, from Greek, from anarchos having no ruler, from an- + archos ruler
1 a : absence of government b : a state of lawlessness or political disorder due to the absence of governmental authority c : a utopian society of individuals who enjoy complete freedom without government
2 a : absence or denial of any authority or established order b : absence of order : DISORDER not anarchy of nature -- Israel Shenker

Normally when I explain this I use a political example there can be others but thats just the easiest for me to use.

Suppose there is a government (could be a democracy, communist, monarchy, or the work place) now with in this country the government system is working every one is happy generaly every thing is in
order every one obeys the laws of the land till one day the order gets disturbed by any thing from a nay sayer to a terrorist causes chaos disturbing the order that has been around for years now everything could go back to normal or the cause of the chaos could see the opportunity to start taking over eventually the chaos bringers the anarchists if you will start causeing more chaos until everything falls into disarray finally leading the country to complete anarchy because they didn't establish a form of government to replace it and then a group of anarchists establish their own form of government finally bringing every thing back in to order.

to explain this one can also use nature or anything
