Historically why did alcohol only catch on with wh*te devils and not other populations? With the expection of the muslim world, I don't understand.

Besides water and tea beer is the most popular drink in the world

Probably has something to do with it being expensive or hard to make for other cultures. I'm just guessing, but in China and Japan I'm assuming only nobles and rich people ever really drank much.

Other races are too pussy to handle it. Asians literally cannot oxidize acetaldehyde, they just have shit genes.

The fuck you talking about?

Before Islam the Middle East and North Africa invented beer and wine making.

The Chinese made beer and later adopted wine techniques they picked up from the ME.

Japan is known for sake.

People have been drinking for millennia. Some anthropologists even suggest that alcohol and alcohol production contributed to the creation of civilization.

Shit, even the indigenous Americans were fermenting and drinking chicha.

Wine started in Georgia, you could argue whether they are European or not.

Alcohol might be forbidden in the Koran but most Muslims still drank alcohol. Raki is a turkish national drink.

My bad, I tend to group the Caucasus in with the Middle East but I know that's incorrect.

Apparently the Chinese were making grape-based wines in the same time period but it seems like rice wine became more popular as using grapes to make wine was reintroduced later through trade.

Wrong.

Came here to post this. Alcohol is the bedrock of civilization and can be found everywhere.

>>3309384
Snaps is basically vodka, though, it was drunk daily, usually at every meal. And now we drink Vodka instead of snaps, but only till we pass out.
>>
Also worth considering other drugs, not just alcohol.

Native Americans had alcoholic beverages prior to European contact, but also hallucinogens. Indians, and people in modern day Afghanistan were reported as smoking weed in Herodotus. Etc.

Could have been central Anatolia as wellI thought. I've heard the Capadocia region called the worlds oldest continuously used wine region.
>>
>>3308388
The caucasus has generally more in common with the middle east. Only the russian caucasus is mostly european.
>>
>>3309474
What does that even mean though? What exactly do Yemenis and Georgians culturally have in common that Georgians have less of with Russians?

Even if you consider the Caucasus part of the the 'Middle East', that area can easily be subdivided too.
