I disagree. Groups behave a bit more deterministically based on IQ
over recent history, maybe
Well let me ask you a question
look up the Flynn effect
Is IQ all that matters to a society's direction and decisions?
nope
no, I think personality is a factor as well
as well as a host of other things, like the historical narrative and philosophy which may form the basis of those decisions
however those two not necessarily independent of those traits
Yeah so they are factors
But how big a factor?
well, for example, Asians have higher IQ than Caucasians, but they are likely more collectivist due to a personality difference
because I'm pretty sure that the existing environment (society, economy, local land's resources) are bigger
well... the existing the environment was developed to a great extent by the people that live in it
that's a unique aspect of humans, we affect our own environment
to such a degree that it affects our evolutionary direction
what about the fact the communism is wide spread in Asia while orginating from eroupe.
it did not originate from Europeans.
It did
marxs?
Marx was Jewish
wew
lad
but did the jews not inhrate a lot of europen genes by being there for a longtime.
The Ashkenazi Jews kept to themselves mostly
within other societies
to preserve their ethnicity and culture
k
leaving that point asside
Why did western Europe develop into the "western world " while eastern Europe fall behind following the black plague?
long story
@Apotheosis Still another race being able to set the princibles of another, showing how confinding to your race is ilogical to spread your princibles.
if I had to guess, one big factor is tech advancement
no
yes china had all of it too, but they didn't need to learn to use it, develop it, and exploit it as much as we did
It can be greatly simplified
the big thing was losing the thirty years war
Not really
and not forming unified states
for a long time
