Chinese failed time and time again to use their inventions to any advantage
And show me the person who imported it from China
ProTip you cannot
Europe was definitely inventing a lot during the pre-enlightenment era, but there WAS a small 'ice age' @DanConway
The article litterally says it was you nob
I was using this as an example
they are making a historical assumption
With very little evidence to support it
I thought you were a skeptic
k, I felt like it was glossed over too quickly.
I'm sure it DID have quite an effect on crop harvests for several decades
Pretty sure humans have been inventing since before they were even considered human.
It's a constant improvement process.
lol that was "the distributists" point
It also allowed storage and breeding processes for this timeframe to improve
There was a cold snap and a massive disease raviging the contenant
Just so you know
I am going off of a different source from a paper i wrote
You forget how the plague isolated communities. Add in warring states as warlords vied for power
that contradicts the china
This is just bad history friend
Depends on the timeframe
Fall of Rome--------->Enlightenment
This video is fantastic if you want to know more about the ice age, little ice age, and climate change in general: https://youtu.be/G0Cp7DrvNLQ
They also cite inventions post dark ages
This is a large span of time
My main point
This article is all jacked
THE ENLIGHTMENT DID NOT MAGICALLY APPEAR
it was built on by the Science and engineering and philosophy that happened during the socalled "dark Ages"
You also realize post fall of rome. Spain and france were invaded by the moors. Whome had trade with their islamic brothers who ran the silk road
Oh, the video also talks about the enlightenment period.
It said that there was a period of time where the climate was super awesome for growing food and in general not having a hard time. It gave people a better food amount and more time to think about stuff.
Yes there was some. I never denied that. I stated it was only clergy. The rest of the citizenry was busy trying to survive
"Only Clergy"
Well, it has been shown that an increase in food leads to an increase in the populace, which leads to an increase in specialization
You mean the people who did Science engineering and Philosophy🤦🏿 in that time frame
The cold period between romes warm period, and the enlightenments warm period. Constant wars. And the plague gave to much for common citizenry to worry about
"Constant Wars"
And the clergy didnt share often
