Asia divides in two parts: The part that became under the influence of a hard religion (islam) south and southeast asia, and the part that became under the influence of a soft almost atheist religion (buddhism) the second one by nature of buddhism didn't stopped progress that much since buddhism has less tendency on destroying liberties under the will of a God

lots of people means smart projects, this is true for any country, even shitty ones
look Nigeria, the more people they have the more they develop important projects on their own, even if it's still a shithole in comparison to other countries that had a big population in the last millenium

of course, but it was just a comparison
other civilisations at least as old than Asia's made big things because they hade lots of people, which attracts great minds of mnor territories around, and so on
once a pole starts draining local smaller poles around it, it grows until forming a culture on its own, until it meets another one and makes boundaries with it. the more people it integrates, the larger the international attraction, and therefore the relevance, or "smartness" of the culture is

or at least that's how I understood OPs question

asia itself is not a culture, by we he means the separate cultures of those individual countries in east asia that views academic attainment as the highest expression of achievement in life

large culture itself does not arrive at that conclusion, america is a big culture but americans are not known for their strict adherence for academic success

They are the race that lacks the most self-awareness, hence why whites in one year have more personal achievements than Asians in their whole history. Even our blacks have more individual accomplishments than 3 billion of them

>>77362631
You aren't, you're just more studious. The amount of invention and innovation out of the massive population for their supposed intellect is sad.

So congratulation on better tests scores and working hard but inefficiently.

Some of the dumbest people I work with as an engineer are East Asians who went to top schools. They have no practical knowledge to apply or greater understanding of systems. They end up causing more problems by getting stuck on a minor point and becoming blind to the greater problem and it's solution (that also fixes said minor point).

Yes, reality is sour grapes.

Your fellow Japanese turds got a Nobel for inventing a blue LED but the American (Rusyn descent) inventor of the LED got nothing. That's a fucking affirmative action award if I've heard of one.

American James T. Russell invented the CD. Japs made money on the players.

George Harry Heilmeier. Japs manufacture the tech and become known for it.

This shit goes on and on. You can manufacture other people's inventions but only come up with modifications of existing inventions.

Europeans didn't domesticate any crops

And yet Europeans think they invented everything

Etruscans were europeans and they knew how to deal with bronze. And we know we knew, since etruscans taught romans to deal with bronze as well. Guess who are etruscans? Yes, they are europeans.

And do you know how indoeuropeans managed to conquer all the Europe? They domesticated horses and invented wheels. Without any semits

Still have to admit that you are right —europeans borrowed their alphabetes from semitic people, as well as they were not the first to do agriculture. But european culture is nonetheless the greatest culture on Earth, for only europeans could make all the world to work for their economies in previous centuries.

Confucianism values education and intense competition is produced in highly populated East Asia.

This explains why Hong Kong has the highest IQ in the world. They are a Confucian region with a high population density.

It has nothing to do with genetics or East Asians being naturally smart.

you're ignorant as shit honestly. especially since PISA tests aren't even very much effort-based since its basically an IQ test combined with how good a school system is.

besides it being little known in japan to begin with, it's a phenomenon usually seen in the second world countries that the state picks up gifted kids to hothouse so they can win international contests, not only this but also other olympic games and such, to boost national prestige. i've watched a documentary about that. japan doesn't have such a screening or special education system. admittedly the soviet's gone, but the system or doctrine still prevails in those countries.

We will always be the place of true innovation of thought. You will always follow our lead. You know, if it weren't for us, you would have had a shit-tier feudalistic or communist government. It took until the 70s for your ape-brained continent to come to peace. keep making my electronics, robot. Your women don't even want children anymore. You will see your time.

Now when you ask them what did they think about what's in the book or what they just told you their brain seems to collapse

although not mechanics, but the japanese came up with the concept of calculus at almost the same time.

>Seki laid foundations for the subsequent development of Japanese mathematics known as wasan;[2] and he has been described as "Japan's Newton".[4]
>He created a new algebraic notation system and, motivated by astronomical computations, did work on infinitesimal calculus and Diophantine equations. A contemporary of Gottfried Leibniz and Isaac Newton, Seki's work was independent. His successors later developed a school dominant in Japanese mathematics until the end of the Edo period.
