@Deli.v2 you're correct in that, but that's when the RI started to show.
so you think the decline began when the ottoman decline began?
And through the 70s, they started to get into more powerful positions.
RI?
With that, they shifted the direction of the country.

This was the teeeitorial peak of the Ottomams
Muslims have always been stagnate and fallen behind🤔
No
They were fantastic when they were unified under the Abbasids
"muslim world"?
Even the Ottomans were ahead in military technology
it's not about muslim or christianity so much as it is europe vs asia
Watch out boys we got a retard over here
Until they started to stagnate due to a long period of peace
asia was originally on par with european development and sometimes even ahead for much of time, until colonial periods where they were effectively oppressed and dismantled for western profits
it's been a very slow recovery period since those times, with only a few economies building back up to compete with the west
>few
can't tell if you're implying less or more there
More
not really
most of asia still can't compete with the west
some countries can
Chad Islam
Don't mix culture with Islam
For example Japan, S.K, Taiwan, China, Thailand, India, Saudi Arabia
<:GWfroggyWeSmart:375369048038572035>
Most of those can compete with the west
Taiwan not so much but they still count
Wait how do I get roles
Nvm
Activity
thailand, along with bangladesh, and taiwan are still manipulated as cheap and exploitative supply chains for western business
that is not "competing"
that is called being used
india, yes
china, yes
