Empire of the Ants

Empire Of The Ants
 
The ant is a very powerful insect as it 
can move ten times it's own bodyweight
and has the ability to create huge 
underground cities and colonies.
 
Most ants, have their own special ability
and are ruled by the Queen ant, similar 
to bees, they all have ranks and they
also have their own special duties, the 
worker ants will excavate and build little 
catacombs forming them into little grottos
 
The ants live and store food in their large 
cities of earth connected by a network of
large tunnels created by the workers. 
The soldier ants are there to guard the 
Queen along with the other ants from 
predators, The Queen's protection remains 
paramount and the other ants are her 
loyal subjects of the large empire she 
has built. 
 
In the lower tunnel a large obstruction is
blocking the path of a storage warehouse 
being built.  a large group of reinforcements 
are called in to move the large stone, they 
all pull at the blocked section, with their 
powerful mandible claws they finally remove
their obstruction.
 
The Ant, is so much like mankind, as they build 
cities and are the only other species that wage 
war on each other, and are capable of warring 
with other ant colonies, there is a strong 
connection between  the two species, but all 
this does not stop these amazing creatures to 
evolve into the future.
 
Who knows one day these ants may even become
a more powerful force than man himself, no one
can predict the future of the human race as the 
ants evolve into higher life forms, it may well end
up becoming the empire of the ants.
