New Zealand btfo

Every country in the American continent is western, you Mongoloid. Nobody uses chopsticks to eat neither is any country predominantly muslim and all of them celebrate Christmas that's as western as it gets.

Argentina, Brazil, and Chile are majority white as well.

Western hemisphere ≠ Western civilization

> mexican intellectuals

Damn that Russia is a big guy

It's best we forget about them for the moment.

That map projection is incorrect desu

Africa is yuge and Greenland is relatively tiny

It's called western civilization because when the term was coined the Americas were undiscovered, so western Europe was considered the west of the known world.

The name just stuck I guess.

He doesn't afraid of anything either

South Korea and Japan are honorary westerners.

>implying the entire southern hemisphere isn't completely irrelevant if not downright cancerous

the west of the northern hemisphere is all that matters

This is why no one takes you seriously leaf.

there is an eastern civilization
there is no southern civilization
polarizing yourself with something that doesn't exist is pointless

in political science it's known as the global north. it includes Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Israel(yes)

...

Fight me cunt

Good question, cause I don't give a fuck about all that noise.

>3rd world country

>Australia
>Civilization

Relevant Civilization
Effective Civilization

any more?

All the History/PoliSci professors at my school called it North/South instead of East/West.

Holdover title, and technically the middle-east is a part of western civilization, they just went down a different cultural branch.

Australia is part of the northern hemisphere because it was created by it

It's called western to distinguish from the Asian and Persian civilizations which developped simultaneously within the same hemisphere

implying New Australia is not apart of Australia

In truth we should just call it civilization

>Australia
>Civilized
