>>54707715>White people just got lucky, that's all.>They lived in an area , Europe, that facilitated trade and learning from other countries.This one does not know anything.
White people form Europe "facilitated trade and learning". Not Europe. Europe is just a large peninsula on Eurasian content.
Shit number of population compared to India or China.
India and China had EVERYTHING and India alone was the more than half or world economy in 15-16 century.
The Dutch invented capitalism, stock exchange, and risk management (insurance) for shipping. Which is kinda important since the Arabs, Persians hold the monopoly on trade with the Orient. You see, to avoid this monopoly you have to sail around Africa.
Innovation and political systems - shitload of small countries in Europe, different cultures, lack of empires (empires are Asian thing), competition between them. Copying things that work form each other. Competition works.
Renaissance - birth of humanism, Medici banking family from Florence financed the Italian Renaissance, just another shift from religion and into actually trying understand the world
Geographically - China and India were actually better positioned for trade. India had Arabia and East Africa on her west side and SI Asia and today's Indonesia on another. China was north, Persia west. Shitload of resources and - shitload of people. It was market by itself. Do I even need to say anything about China and it's natural resources, rivers for trade, and fertile soil?
Go be nigger somewhere else.
