Yep, Italy never fails to amaze me for the progress its had relative to others while we just sat around until the 1500s. But thats what you get when youre an isolated island nation.
They were the only ones with the means to do something like colonizing the entire world.

This. I'm so proud to have Roman heritage.

It was pretty inevitable that we would be on top when we had Newton and Leibniz while the rest of the world did nothing.
You might even be able to place us starting to accelerate relative to the rest of the world even earlier, but certainly by the late 1600s we were always going to be on top

No, it only started at the renaissance.

>need citation to prove a knight in full plate armor is not advanced
sure
>>57209299
not really irrelevant, but we were way weaker than China.
Also, Ottoman Empire back then was probably stronger than any single European country
>>57209299
compared to china and india, yes
but i think they are kinda prominent exceptions
>>57209669

Italy copied Greece. And to say northern Europe was nothing when it had trade, mining, metal work and all that shit is just ignorant.

Everywhere I meet Italians, they go on about "muh Rome" and "muh Renaissance"
But then again many euro's do about "muh heritage".
It's like some dude bragging about his dad. Stop it already.
>>57209920
This is full of shit

If there was one world power which never acted like a world power, it's India.
