That's an incorrect statement. European culture is derived from older cultures in the western half of Asia and north africa. Even the Greeks borrowed from the Egyptians and Persians. Europe was still a backwater in the 1700s. It did a lot of great things and did give the world a great culture, but it did NOT civilise the planet. That was done by the Mesopotamian, Egyptian, Persian, Indian, Chinese, Greek, Roman cultures from which Europe took knowledge and enhanced.

Maybe you're right when you mention South and West Africa, but in the rest of Eurasia that sentence is wrong.
