The only credible alternative to a government, is a religion
It survives governments, it survives the loss of homeland, and it binds people, it prevent them and their culture from dissolving entirely
Religion is quite powerful, when done the right way, as powerful as underestimated

Thing is, what makes a religion waht it is?
I mean, what makes The difference, between a religion and let's say, an ideology, like communism for instance
Indocrination?
No, both have it eventually
What makes the religion, immortal? Communists/soviets, are gone, nobody says "long live soviet russia/stalin"
They are gone forever and they aren't going to make a comeback
Communism is just one incarnation of the Statism religion. Statism is still the most prominent and powerful religion in the world.
The thing that differentiates a religion from an ideology is, as I said, the belief in a centralized divine authority. Regardless of what they openly profess or are consciously aware of, Statist believe in a god, and their god is the State.
Most people are followers, and will believe whatever they are told by those whom they trust to be competent leaders. The problem of the State arises when the leaders tell the people born under their rule, fraudulently, that they already have authority over them even though they have not consented.
