Jared Diamond:
"Guns, Germs and Steel"
history of mankind in the last 13,000 years.
The humans evolved in Africa. Even
homo sapiens began his journey there.
So why are not the African ethnic groups and cultures to dominate the continents?
In Mesopotamia, the Near East and Egypt civilizations and empires have flourished majestic. Because today is not their heirs to lay down the law?
China early 500, that is when I started the great "discoveries" and, therefore, the great achievements, had the most advanced naval technology and military and state structures more efficient. Why were not the Chinese who now run the oceans and rob the Americas, Africa and Oceania of their resources?
Cortés and Pizarro, with a few hundred soldiers toppled empires of battered warriors. Why were not the Inca and Aztec emperors to send their armies across the Atlantic?
the question "Why do us white we have evolved technologically over all and we were able to colonize almost all other ethnic groups and cultures?" you, what would you say?
