Society or human society is the coexistence of human beings characterized by many interrelationships such as occupation, age, sex, religion, status, residence, etc.

For a social system that includes living things other than humans, the term ecology may be used to refer to the relationship of living things to the environment.

Human society is formed by a group of people who have things in common in any area such as countries, provinces, and others, and they often have their own cultures or traditions, including their own language, recreational activities, and food in each society.
