Why were Italians so smart in almost every facet of civilization? They dominated culture, politics, religion, and war for thousands of years
First they flourished with war, civlization, law, art and culture through Rome. You'd think they'd stop after that, but no then they rose from the grave and did it all over again as Italy
How the fuck did they do it?
By expropriating resources from other areas via taxation/trade/"brain drain."
The same way Persia did it. The same way China did it. The same way Spain did it. The same way Britain did it. The same way the US does it today.
