Um, they did - China was the global superpower for most of human history. Western (read: caucasian) dominance is a relatively recent phenomenon.
And even that dominance is thanks almost entirely to the Islamic golden age that preceded it.
And just like the ignorant muslim empires in 1200 who assumed they would rule the world forever, Westerners haven't realized the rest of the world has caught up to them and the European age is over.
- alvah 4y agoSo your basic math has no explanation for Western domination over the last ~250 years. Got it.
