No you are right. But again coffee wasn't discovered by Europeans until around that same time mid to late 1500s. Civilization is much older than that.

- lostlogin 10y agoIt's an interest story/legend as to how coffee got introduced to Europe, left behind by the retreating Ottoman army at Vienna. Resulted, apparently, in the invention of the croissant too. The ends don't justify the means, but that's a lot more productive that many recent conflicts. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_III_Sobieski https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_III_Sobieski https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viennese_coffee_house https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viennese_coffee_house
