 The module manager is used throughout the application whenever an action on a collection of modules is required. It implements the following methods:
 
 * `NewManager(modules ...AppModule)`: Constructor function. It takes a list of the application's `AppModule`s and builds a new `Manager`. It is generally called from the application's main [constructor function](../basics/app-anatomy.md#constructor-function).
-* `SetOrderInitGenesis(moduleNames ...string)`: Sets the order in which the [`InitGenesis`](./genesis.md#initgenesis) function of each module will be called when the application is first started. This function is generally called from the application's main [constructor function](../basics/app-anatomy.md#constructor-function).
+* `SetOrderInitGenesis(moduleNames ...string)`: Sets the order in which the [`InitGenesis`](./genesis.md#initgenesis) function of each module will be called when the application is first started. This function is generally called from the application's main [constructor function](../basics/app-anatomy.md#constructor-function).

+  To initialize modules successfully, module dependencies should be considered. For example, the `genutil` module must occur after `staking` module so that the pools are properly initialized with tokens from genesis accounts, the `genutils` module must also occur after `auth` so that it can access the params from auth, `capability` module should be initialized before all other modules so that it can initialize any capabilities.
 * `SetOrderExportGenesis(moduleNames ...string)`: Sets the order in which the [`ExportGenesis`](./genesis.md#exportgenesis) function of each module will be called in case of an export. This function is generally called from the application's main [constructor function](../basics/app-anatomy.md#constructor-function).
 * `SetOrderBeginBlockers(moduleNames ...string)`: Sets the order in which the `BeginBlock()` function of each module will be called at the beginning of each block. This function is generally called from the application's main [constructor function](../basics/app-anatomy.md#constructor-function).
 * `SetOrderEndBlockers(moduleNames ...string)`: Sets the order in which the `EndBlock()` function of each module will be called at the end of each block. This function is generally called from the application's main [constructor function](../basics/app-anatomy.md#constructor-function).
