Lots of Steemit users like the idea of Anarchy, but are there any good examples showing that it is viable? I can find brief periods in time where governments fell and anarchy remained by default, but I have yet to find any example of deliberate anarchist groups that have been successful for any reasonable amount of time.

My questions to Steemit Anarchists:
- Are there any decent examples of centralized groups that have intentionally tried an anarchist living that have been successful (comfortable existence without homelessness etc)?
- Are there any examples that came close but were halted before being able to be successful?
This would be a good discussion I think as I know it would interest me to hear more about this. As someone who enjoys the idea of voluntaryism, but can't understand how it would work at scale, I would love to hear more from the people who have done the research on governments and history.
