The underlying reason can be traced to a culture centred around consumption, where your identity went from what you made to what you bought. So sex along with everything else became something easily branded, shown and digested.

The act itself =/= Identifying that way.

Plenty of men in prison rape and fuck too, but would never do such a thing outside prison.

Yes, it was. Gorbachev was too idealistic here.

Yes.... The University

If there is any unique innovation in Western Civilization, that propelled it self to dominance in intellectual fields, its the university

first "true" university being the University of Bologna in Italy circa 1088 followed by Oxford, Salmanca etc. etc.

Note: there were institutions of learning in Ancient Greece, Persia, China, Rome, Byzantium,Islamic World etc.,

but they were much different in structure than the medieval European university which is the FOUNDATION of the modern university today

Capitalism

Well, for starters, the western civilization was quite close to the start of agriculture, and could therefore quickly start farming themselves. However, contrary to the people in the Fertile Crescent, where temperatures were quite mild, winters could be difficult, and thus, something was needed to store food. In winter, there was not much to do, and thus, there was time to think and improve their way of life. Other parts of the world either (1) did not have harsh winters or (2) were far away from the Fertile Crescent or (3) were still sailing in their logs to some of the more shitty islands in the Pacific.

However, other civilizations have risen and fallen before the rise of Western civilization. The 'special' thing about Western civilization is an abundance of resources like iron and wood, easy acces to grains and horses and a willingness to explore.

All in all, Western civilization is nothing special, we have had it very good while developing and continued this advantage well into modern times.

I feel bad for pigmys desu. They are just small and peaceful people who cheerish life and joy who get rekt constantly by their bigger neighbours. They even made special hiding places in trees only they can access. They even live in the trees for a while.

They are like little wood elves.

They were essential in rebuilding Brandenburg and laying the economic foundation for the modern Prussian state.
Berlin was a francophone city full of Huguenots in 18th century.

>>2224003
They also made vineyards in South Africa.

Muslim merchants were well connected to the source of a lot of silver in the Indian ocean. So local kings in Southeast Asia would let them set up merchant colonies to tax their trade. Sometimes they would pick out one of the more important merchants and invite them to court to help manage trade and diplomatic relations with other trade hubs, which were either Muslim or also had a Muslim merchant colony. This meant you had a wordly, educated Muslim at high positions at court who could influence the king, his other officials, and the nobility. It's a bit like how Scandinavia was Christinized I think.

>>2223346
Not sure but i think that except in India Islam spread peacefully in Asia.

Real life isn't a GSG idiot. Rome extended as far as it was able or worthwhile to.

>>2222876
You mean besides the fact that they DIDN'T WANT TO EXTEND?

They willingly relinquished a bunch of territories because they realised it would be too difficult for them to overextend themselves that far and manage all these vast new territories, so they just willingly gave them up. In fact, managing the empire became such a chore that they split it into two empires to make things simpler. This isn't the 2000's with smart phones and internets and satellites and cable. This was back in the day where everything was by horses and carriages, it would take many days just to send a message from one province to another, and years to move armies. For a state like the SPQR that relied on a relatively small but professional full time armed force, maintaining a huge frontier is a pain in the ass.
