2) Because the corporation is its own entity, it continues on after leadership changes (or even after the death of the founders).

I'd recommend going online to research what incorporation entails and how to do it. You wouldn't need to ask these questions if you'd familiarize yourself with Google.
that is helpful, thanks!

''sustain a corporation'' what does that mean, if you can explain it?
