Sure. But it only really becomes a problem in very large communities. A chieftain overseeing 50-100 villagers isn't as easily corrupted.
At that point, the scale is just different. That's when the brother of the chief gets to build his new hut on the nice hill.
Lol, that's the mildest form of corruption I can imagine.
But do you really think a village has zoning laws in the first place?
At that scale, it's also much easier to just remove the chief's son from his hut on the "nice hill". And the chief along with him. Scale being the key factor is the essence of my argument.
