This work proposes a unified theoretical model describing the emergence of social order, morality, legitimacy, and the classification of resentment ("justified anger" vs. "unreasonable grudge"). The model integrates perspectives from evolutionary game theory, coalition formation, social psychology, and political sociology. It treats morality and normativity not as primitive axioms but as emergent outputs of a deeper resource competition system. Individuals attempt to shape others into beneficial partners, strategically present themselves, and ultimately internalize recurrent behavioral strategies. At the system level, enforcement and the elimination of deviants stabilize collective equilibria. The model formally describes these dynamics through replicator equations, multi-layer agent behavior, and coalition payoff structures. This framework is applicable to human societies, non-human social animals, and large-scale political transitions.
