The 4 theories of the origins of the state are:

1. The divine right theory - God created the state.

2. The force theory - One person or a small group of people claim control over the population in an area by force.

3. The natural theory - We coexist because we achieve more from operating alongside others.

4. The social contract - The community population and the leader have a contract. The state has power and authority over the territory.

So anything outside of these 4 ideas are NOT theories of the state.
