>>17997707All of them died out to other larger cultures except China, but even then it has extreme influences from the nomads of the north and the jungle people of the south. So much so that there are stereotypes and a noticeable cultural/linguistic divide between northerners and southerners.
>>17997720Greece isn't listed
>>17997707Dysgenics. Chinese bugmen seem to handle the negative aspects of civilisation better however, probably because they bred with aliens in the Himalayas. Their civilisations often catastrophically crash instead of slowly dying out, which makes it easier to rise up again
>>17997707>MesopotamiaGod knows what exactly Sumerians were genetically but they got replaced>HarappaWiped out by a wave of invaders which got wiped out by a wave of invaders which got wiped out by...>EgyptCulturally completely colonized by Arabs, and generally under foreign rule since the Assyrian invasion>ChinaStill full of Han Chinese! Though mutted as fuck after many iterations of invasions by northern nomads
>>17997707Islam is to blame. Sorry for noticing, muslims.
>>17997707Pisslam
They don't need to
For the middle-east, Islam-induced dysgenicsFor India, Jeets are just jeets
>>17997707egypt stopped being relevant a LOOOOOOOOONG time ago man. by the roman period it was just a huge farm to feed the rest of the mediterranean, very few developments were coming out of egyptmesopotamia got hit by the 1 2 punch of arabs then mongols. the arabs ruined all the complex infrastructure in the conquests and never bothered to figure out how to fix it or pay people that knew what they were doing to fix it. then as they were reconsidering that retardation, the mongols show up and annihilate the region and the arabs conclude the reason the mongols came was because allah was mad at them for not being retarded fundamentalists
>>17997707You know this pic was made by an indian because it calls it "The Indus-Sarasvati Valley"There's literally ZERO actual evidence that the Sarasvati River was the one they claim to be, and since it was a tributary of the Indus anyways, there is no reason to call it that way unless you are desperate to tie it vedic myth.
>>17997707Islam mainly.
>>17997707Henan, the cradle of Chinese civilization, is known throughout China as a shithole
>>17998411Explain
>>17997707They all came to be inhabited by brown people who subsequently claimed the greatness of the civilizations who's ruins they lived in. True in the Yucatan as well. China got away a little better because instead of outright brown people they got yellow mongoloid genes.
>>17997707>except china
>>17997707Islam
>>17997713Seething
Eastern trade routes become less profitable after the discovery of America
With the exception of China all others were taken over by Islam which is a regressive ideology that promotes cousin marriage leading to massive inbreeding.
>>17997707it's because they were *easy* places to survive in thus stifling innovation while also breeding "center of the world" syndrome that makes you underestimate everything.
>>17997707china is the only one not situated in a desert.
>>17997713Because it stopped being white.
>>17997707Modern wastewater treatment is an invention of the late 19th century. Being a shithole was the natural state of civilisation.
>>17998348>arabs conclude the reason the mongols came was because allah was mad at them for not being retarded fundamentalistsLmfao
>>17997707Because they were successful purely because rivers fertilized the land which enabled rapid and overwhelming agricultural surplus that could support large civilisations.Egypt survived the longest because it had basically cheat-mode geography, being surrounded by either water or desert, with a small land-bridge into the rest of the world that could easily be defended. The Nile was also the best river out of the 4 rivers basins because the Nile had an extremely predictable flooding pattern.The 3 other cultures were eventually overwhelmed by outside invaders. Yes that includes the yellow river civilization because both the Zhou and Qin invaded from the east.
Because being old often means being used up environmentally and geopolitically.
