Why did it take so long for them to develop civilizations compared to the rest of the world?
Compared to the rest of the world (Middle East, India, China, and even the Americas) Europe was a late bloomer. The only remotely ancient European civilization were the Greeks, but they were closer to the Middle East than to the rest of Europe.
It's not like geography was that big an issue. The European climate is actually pretty forgiving. The land is good, there isn't extreme flooding or extreme heat. So why didn't complex civilizations begin in, say, central France?
Because Europe was never an ideal place to settle, certainly not back then. European climate isn't as forgiving as you think, it's only forgiving to modern people in modern houses, not thousands of years ago, and the natural barriers are many, so no, the geography is a huge issue.
>So why didn't complex civilizations begin in, say, central France? Why don't you look at all the early civilizations and tell us what they have in common, surely, there must be some kind of hint as to the requirements of such a thing to exist, right?
You have a very wrong impression of Europe, but that's normal.
Noah Lewis
Well I mean obviously all the major civilizations of ancient times began in river valleys. But you mean to tell me that there aren't any rivers in Europe that are good for farming?
Xavier Lopez
What I'm telling you is there are too many natural barriers, and not a big enough river in a good enough climate. If the Rhine was in Portugal, we might've seen an early civilization.
But it isn't.

umm, we have the most stone circles in Europe m8. Ancient Britons 4000+ years ago fucking loved stone circles, they're the epitome of civilisation.

The Aztecs went from wandering nomads to the largest empire in the Americas in only 200 years. They built a city on a damn lake, and it was bigger than Londan at the time. No excuses.
Andrew White
That design hasn't actually changed much from 5000 before christ to 1500 before christ.
Pic related is when the romans came here. The relations were good usually. Their fortresses and army barracks became our first cities.
This, how the fuck were people supposed to get to Europe from Africa faster than sandniggers to their sandnigger desert

Dutch people were illiterate until the Romans came. So there are no cool pre-christ stories to tell either.
People were just simple rural people, wih farms, iron smiths and warrior tribes.

Non meme they were surprisingly advanced and well adapted to their environment. The tools and equipment found on the body of Ötzi (circa 3,300 BCE) suggest a well developed material culture at a very early age.
Now, this isn't to say Europeans developed on their own the hallmarks of what we would toiday consider civilization (reading and writing, monumental architecture proper, advanced mathematics) but the same could be said of 90% of the peoples in the world. Much the same as evolution cultural progress does not pursue a specific outcome. The same as Australian aboriginals, who hold the record for the longest running examples of continued cultural transmision, Europeans managed to thrive and survive in oft unforgiving circumstances.

>The European climate is actually pretty forgiving No, it wasn't.
>The land is good Again, it wasn't.
Europe used to be a frozen shithole for most of the year back then. Everything north of Greece, Italy and Spain was cold as tits and the land was hardly arable. Even then, one of the oldest civilizations (pre-indo-european even) was between the danube and dnieper, but it was destroyed by the yamna culture.
Luis Gomez
Because it was a mountainous shithole full of forests and swamps

Winter. Once that was taken care of, Europe thrived faster because of the advantage in mindset.

The first modern human was born 200.000 years ago. And they already had fire before that.
If people developed in the year 197.000 or in the year 199.000 isnt very interesting.

And to top it off, Europeans don't even have their own religions.

The history of humanity is longer than you think. Everyone sat on their asses for hundreds of millennia. Until one guy said: uhhh should we herd these cows and plant these crops? Which then sparked civilization and got copied by the entire world within no time.
Except large parts of modern Africa who never got the spark of civilisation.
Parker Mitchell
New Testament was written in Greek and Jesus spoke Greek

The Chinese altered Buddhism significantly. Doesn't make Buddhism a Chinese religion.
I've no clue why you decided that that would be any different for Europeans.
Europe began with a bunch of mudhut tribal pagan faiths of all sorts and sizes. Christianity came in from the Middle East, and much of those mudhut beliefs were absorbed into the religion. The base of the religion, however, is largely the same.
It's like a tomato soup. You can add various ingredients to alter the flavor a bit, but the base tomato-ness remains the same.
I mentioned Latin because it's based on the Greek alphabet, which in turn was based on the Phoenician alphabet. Phoenicians, if you didn't already know, were Middle Eastern Semites. Nobody copied anybody with the agricultural revolution. You have people in Eastern India and people in Southern America who learned to farm independently of one another -- long before any known connection between the two was established.
Other than maybe Subsaharan Africa and Australia, virtually every majorly-inhabited region on Earth learned to farm by 1000 BC. Except, of course, Western Europe.
Asher Carter
Cringeworthy, nearly as bad as when the Americans claim Jesus was a white redneck.
Where the fuck do you think Jesus lived? Christianity is a sand nigger religion based around the worship of a dead Jew. Nothing remotely European about that, you delusional fuckstain. The scriptures where written in Hebrew and Aramaic, middle eastern languages, then later compiled and translated into Greek.
It is a sand nigger tribal death cult.

You realise OP that things stop growing in September? I mean if I was a cropsnigger 2000 years ago and has to choose between working the fields in western Europe half a year so I don't die of hunger in winter or being comfy in southern Europe/middle east the choice is clear.
