I’ve always thought that Middle East should belong with Europe as a group then with Asia which is big enough. Probably some European came up with how to split up the Eurasia continent .

Probably as long as each member counted on each other for jobs or survival then the tighter the connections is. Right now in much of the developed or developing world it’s shameful to ask for assistance from own relatives which might be a reason the society became more wealthy.

It’s becoming much less likely now then even before of a small country rising up and conquering other countries to become big enough to become superpower since the big ones won’t allow it. The most a medium size country can aspire to become is a economic power (maybe like Japan/Germany). Only large countries (size and population) that become wealthy and tech advanced like USA maybe China can still have segments of the population that is pro military/fighting culture.

I’ve always thought that Middle East should be more associated with Europe then Asia in culture, religion, …..

Yeah things are advancing faster and faster probably because less religious control of society, surplus food/materials, more segments of society allowed to advance….Hopefully though the richest tech people today (Elon, Bezos…) around my age hurry up and learn how to advance the human body/brain.

@inominado1774 I doubt that European conquered and spread to dominate couple continents North America, South America, Australia from other groups that were there. Mongolians just conquered but largely didn’t settle and dominate with their own people the lands that they conquered. After they were eventually defeated or assimilated by original people/culture they didn’t leave that much of a lasting impact.
