Humanity is an important part of human life which is in total absent nowadays in society. Especially in developing and underdeveloped countries people are too much arrogant and avoid attaining the quality of humanity and manner in their life.

Many countries in Asia, Africa, and the Middle East, and others are involving cruel activities like war, destroy human life, property in order to attain his or her own goal. Some of the developed countries involved the game as a role player and watching the unauthorized and non-habitual activities with dignity. We can say by watching their activities they are the proximate cause of making this cruelty to achieved their dishonest greed and interest. Today, We discuss the humanity, lack of humanity, and its causes behind this.

We know well, people are social human beings they can't live alone with honesty, dignity, peace, and happiness. A very few numbers of people who are greedy, dishonest, and immoral try to achieve everything by hook or crook with undue influence, corruption, and cruelty. When human thinks about human life, merit, demerit, opportunity, lacking, an obstacle which helps to cooperate human life easy, comfortable and healthy, is called humanity. Nowadays, it is totally absent in most of the countries in the world. Everywhere you find out fight against one another for interest or without any interest. Some political leaders use the public to achieve their own greedy interests, they show themselves as the greatest patriot and create division the citizen into two parts one is their favor another one enemy. In maximum cases they take site the large number or portion of people in the country. They used different tools and techniques to create dividing rules among the nation. They support to rich by hating the poor, they love their supporter with hating the opposite supporter, they choose one and hate another one, even they use religion to play the most dangerous game among the people.

We can see one country's people is made a field of a war zone for involvement some influential countries.
