How did Nazi Germany and other imperialistic European nations reconcile the idea that whites were the "master race" with the fact that for the majority of human history, Northern Europeans did not contribute anything of note to the world? Until after the Renaissance, most important works of science and culture were created by Africans, mediteranians, middle easterners and Asians.
Not trolling, but if history is looked at objectively it's clear that Northern Europe was a regional power at best until the industrial revolution and basically full ooga boogas until Rome civilized the area.

I don't believe you

I guess the logic is that the Roman Empire was superior to everyone they conquered, and because the Germans were never conquered by the Roman Empire, and indeed ended up being declared the new Roman Empire in the Middle Ages, they must in turn be superior to the Romans, meaning, of course, that they were the biggest bestest race on the planet.

First of all that isnt true especially if you consider celts to be northern european. Secondly nazis didnt think whites were the master race and thirdly white doesnt mean northern european

The Patriarch of Rome humored them, that counted for something.
What is "contribute anything of note to the world" supposed to mean? I always see idiots on /his/ using phrases like this and referring to polities as if they had personalities. Are you all really this stupid?

Germans had been going WE WUZ for like 900 years before Napoleon told them to knock it off.

I don't think the terms "white race" appeared very often in European vocabulary pre-1945.

Hitler himself aknowledged this and just said they'd use their talent to create a greater future

The Nazis were the biggest WE WUZers ever. They rewrote history so that "Aryans" were responsible for everything.
