Groups of prime order are cyclic

A finite group of prime order is generated by any non-identity element
Groups of prime order are cyclic

Proposition (Prime order implies cyclic). Let GG be a finite with G=p|G|=p where pp is prime. Then GG is cyclic; more precisely, for every gGg\in G with geg\neq e, one has G=gG=\langle g\rangle.

Context. This is one of the first applications of : subgroup orders must divide the group order.
