European culture is derived from older cultures in the western half of Asia and north africa Oh lord Cronos...are you an Afrocentrist? I had no idea...now I understand the little Jew-jab. You are an anti-Euro. Are you black?....I'm white obviously.
Europe was still a backwater in the 1700s.
Really...ROTFLMAO...did you miss Colombus, The Spanish Armada, Drake, Magellan and the colonization of the New World and Asia. Who did that? Please....Lord son.

Nope, the North African civilisations include those like Egypt and Carthage, which were CAUCASIAN. African has never meant purely negro.

What Jew jab? You think Jews and ARabs are both of the same race: Semitic. So, Arabs can't be anti-Semitic as that would mean they're anti-themselves.
Is a Jew Jab? Which planet are you from??

Colombus, The Spanish Armada
Colombus goes and explores a new land that was discovered a long time earlier by non-Caucasians (Present day AmerIndians) and most likely by Caucasians as well (Vikings and other cultures). The Spanish Armada was crushed in a storm. The Spanish Armada was also not even a quarter of the size of the Chinese fleet sent by the Ming Emperor to explore The Indian and Pacific Oceans. It was smaller than the Moghal Emperor's navy. And it was also a losing force.

Drake and Magellan, well, you have a point with Magellan.
And Europe's colonization of Asia didn't begin under the latter half of the 1700s and Europe was still a cultural backwater until Victorian times -- it's not unknown for barbarians to invade civilised nations you know. And the Brits in the 1700s were barbarians (of course they cleaned up very very well in the Victorian era)
