A moral decline, particularly the failure to uphold commitments, initiates a cascade of other societal and civilizational issues. Character—embodied in traits such as honesty, integrity, and reliability—is foundational to the health and sustainability of a society.

Individual virtues play. a very important role in maintaining the social fabric and moral compass of civilizations, and rectifying such declines in character is essential for addressing broader societal challenges.
