Manners to society is similar as clothes to people. If people are not wearing clothes, they would be ridiculed and deemed immoral. Similarly if a Society lacks etiquettes, the normal interactions between its members would be interrupted by unnecessary conflicts and disputes. If the society were a train, etiquettes would be tracks along which can the train only move. If the society were a wagon, manners would be wheels and axles on which the wagon would depend. Without manners, the dearest friends could turn into foes and closest allied countries could face each other at war. Many such examples can be found throughout history. Therefore, having good manners towards others and making efforts to follow etiquettes would be my advice, so that one can avoid offending anyone or making enemies.
