Abstract: In the present paper, we have briefly reviewed Sznajd's sociophysics model and its variants, and we also have proposed a simple Sznajd-like sociophysics model based on Ising spin system to explain the time evaluation of resistance probability of a closed community against occupation. Using a numerical method, we have shown that the time evaluation of resistance probability of community has a nonexponential character, which decays as stretched exponential, independent of the number of soldiers in one-dimensional model. Furthermore, it has been astonishingly found that our simple sociophysics model belongs to the same universality class of random walk process on the trapping space.
