Answer 1

The basic reason ant and human society is different is the we are diploids and ants are haplodiploidy. Ants are mostly sisters related by 3/4 to one another. We are related by no more than 1/2 ( except identical twins ) This reason is more basic than brain size, morphology and phylum. Those reasons are not inconsiderable though.
