ITT: We discuss what countries have contributed the most to different fields (calculated per capita).

Pic related, for chemistry.

I think Germany wins the philosophy field. Sweden's contribution mostly consist of killing Descartes and telling Foucault to fuck off with his faulty methodology.
Russia win literature, Italy win art. Finland win food, obviously. And Japan win technology.

>Pic related, for chemistry.
Lavoisier practically invented modern chemistry and "only" discovered oxygen. Mendeleev also "only" discovered six elements, but purely theoretically by using his own invented periodic table. When will Swedes stop being retards who inflate their achievements and realize chemistry is much more than purely discovering elements? Chemistry is quite literally the study of reactions. Discovering static elements is peanuts compared to real chemistry.

This table is a bullshit, because doesn't contain Jewish and Polish nationalities. Poland didn't exist for almost 200 years, it was erased from map, and exactly in this period a lot of Poles who officially were citizens of other countries were making a lot of discoveries and contributed a lot to science.

Jews are literally ubermenschen in field of science and if we had to be serious, most of these country-names would have to be replaced by magen david.

So what does America honestly win? We along with with England, Germany and maybe Japan probably contributed significantly to computer science and electrical engineering but which of us contributed the most? Alan Turing and Edsger Dijkstra are the only significant non-Americans I can think of immediately while we have people like John von Neuman, John McCarthy, Dennis Ritchie, Gerald Sussman and so on. Not to mention people like Richard Stallman and Eric Raymond who convinced thousands of amateur programmers to work for free for the greater good as well Steve Wozniak, Ken Olsen and Bill Gates who were brilliant engineers as well as businessmen

Na, because he held on to his discoveries and kept his knowledge to himself by pride, and that he tended to prefer huge demonstrations where you couldn't understand how he got there

You've got to be kidding me.

Basics of logic, geometry and arithmetic all comes from the fucking greeks. They are basically the bricks later mathematicians used to build knowledge.

Their biggest influence by far though is the invention of western democracy and politics. Plato, Socrates and Aristotle are the cornerstones of philosophy, today and forever.

There is nothing in this world that is not Greek in origin, you are correct. But, so what? The Greek influence could have been lost forever, had it not been for the French, Germans, British, Italians, etc etc who preserved their knowledge; they expanded on their knowledge, and then forced the world to accept their knowledge


>The fuckers basically invented everything practical (papers, fireworks...) 100-200 years before Europe.

Well the only thing I can link to you is sadly in French.
