Quote HistoryQuoted: Until 1500 central/northern Europe was not rich or powerful or knowledgeable save for Rome’s day or Greece’s day. Henry the navigator basically created a 2 generation jump in tech with the Spanish caravel. After 1500 it was all over for the rest of the world. The Portuguese then Spanish then British, etc. take turns siphoning off the rest of the world. Like ANY other culture would when given the chance. Europe was a pack of backwoods retards until the “sea people’s” crushing of the old world (Mesopotamia) gave Greece the chance to breathe around 700 BCE. They started right off from the architecture and knowledge of the Egyptians. This is well established. Rome took similar lessons and used a fantastic culture to conquer much of the western world. .....snip..... You are under-estimating the tremendous amount of intellectual dynamism that was occurring in Europe starting at least since the late 11th century with the rise of the Universities and the ensuing promotion of secular knowledge in law, medicine, and the all-encompassing philosophy, the relaunching of the ideas that would lead to the later scientific and industrial revolutions. Europe was primed for "success". It's true that the naval powers of Europe took a giant leap forward with the discovery and extraction of resources from the other continents, but even that didn't have to be that way. It could have easily been the far larger Chinese fleet under Admiral Zheng sailing to the coast of California but instead the Ming made the crucial decision to focus inward while European societies chose to look to far horizons with their voyages of discovery. |
