So the question; What, in your opinions, are the necessary requirements for a society or governmental system, to be ultimately successful?

Well, I draw a distinction between what makes a society "work" and what would be ideal for human beings.
If we're just arguing functionality, then I'd say any type of coercion into behaving within guidelines will make a society "successful." That coercion could take any form (codified laws, brute force, or a mindfucking religion).
