That these eventually succumbed to government is not an argument in favor of government or against anarchy.

Right...
I really wish you would cut back on the AC cheerleading on this board, it makes it really hard to take the rest of your posts seriously. Especially when you're so condescending about such blatantly hypothetical arguments. You can't say "obviously..." when there's no premise for what you say to be obvious.

Thanks for snipping out the part where I provided a logical argument showing why this is the case.

So what? You say this like it means something. There was a time when there had never been a representative democracy. There was a time when there had never been a monarchy. There was a time when there had never been state socialism. Your argument says that all of them were then impossible because they had not previously existed.
Monarchy did not exist before someone produced a political theory to justify it and propagated that theory to the masses. The same is true of representative democracy. And state socialism. And every other form of government. And the same will be true of the lack thereof.
Anarcho-capitalist theory is brand-new on historical timescales. All that needs to be done to make it viable is to spread the word to the masses.
