Posted by JayMan on Sun Apr 29 13:12:30 2012, in response to Re:, posted by JayZeeBMT on Sun Apr 29 08:47:03 2012. It's all contained the in the history of modern Western civilization that I posted. Europeans, and to a lesser degree East Asians, are outbred enough that they were able to coalesce into large groups, rather than remaining in fragmented tribes like Muslims or sub-Saharan Africans. To Europeans, the group where blood loyalties lied were not just one's extended family or there about (clans or tribes), but the whole nation, since the extensive outbreeding meant that genetic relatedness was shared around a whole country. This, coupled with the technology that made mass killing possible (a product of high IQ), led to the level of carnage seen in the past century.By contrast, the highly inbred Muslim peoples aren't as able to unite as easily, and really were only able to do this a few times in history, under the Caliphate (which didn't last long) and possibly under the Ottoman Turks. As well, people with a long history of civilization have the ability to easily submit to central authority (as opposed to tribal peoples who are only subdued by the power of local strongmen), which is how Eastern Europeans and East Asians operate, and this aids in developing large and powerful armies; which we saw to powerful effect in WWII. Ironically, the dark side of the docility and sophistication of high-IQ peoples is the massive levels of death and destruction they can wreak when led to war. Think maybe of the Clone Troopers from the Star Wars prequels—they follow orders and amass into to deadly effect. |
