Afrikaners reached SA before the Bantus did, and it was around the same time as the colnizing and settling in modern-day US and Canada.

Saudi Arabia should be "historical powerhouse" for being the birth place of Islam which is a huge influence on the world. Russia should also be "Historical powerhouse", maybe even "explosion of history", producing a lot of great writers and artists and being a great power for several centuries. Also important role in space exploration. Germany and Britain should obviously be "explosion of history", both being the countries with the biggest impact on the creation of modern civilization and the most accomplishments in total and in most fields. Netherlands should also be there, many great figures (painters, scientists, inventors) and also a big role in inventing capitalism and liberalism. Dutch Golden Age is unbeliebable. Also America should be "explosion of history". Yeah, it has existed for just a few centuries, but it has done more in this short time than for example Ancient Egypt in its whole existence. Being dominant in the last centuries is much more valuable than ancient history, because you have much more people living and therefore much more direct influence. Sweden should be at "Historical powerhouse", many great figures in science and literature. And how is Mongolia lacking history? Mongol Empire was one of the greatest and most transformative Empires of all of history. It should be at "Historical powerhouse". How is Japan better than China? China should be "explosion of history", it is the most influential east asian country by far (several inventions, Confucianism, being the central power of the region for millenia). India could also be argued to be "explosion of history", given that they birthed hinduism and buddhism and also had quite some influence on mathematics (our numerals). It had a huge influence on East Asian thought. South East Asia basically adopted Indian culture and religion.

Also how is Iraq so bad? Its the birthplace of civilization. It should be "historical powerhouse" for ancient Sumer and Mesopotamia. How is Egypt "explosion of history", while Iraq rated this badly? Sumer/Mesopotamia was more influential (with the invention of scripture, the first cities..) than Egypt. Yeah, you could argue, that it doesn't count, because the people there aren't the same as the ancient populations, but descended also from later invaders. But then you also cannot for example count ancient Egypt for Egypt, or Roman Empire for Italy. It's a double standard.

Portugal should be ranked historical powerhouse, not explosion of history

Spain should be light green tier.
>Muslim occupation until 1492
>discovering and conquering the Americas (which is a legit feat)
>this leads to chronic inflation for centuries, making capital accumulation close to impossible
>elites are incapable of forward thinking, the only thing they can do is throw gold at the army and go to war with everyone around them
>political system degenerates, and the country falls into irrelevance for ever

The most prominent Spaniards are painters and writers. How many competent leaders did they have, aside of Franco and Charles III?

How about Poland:
>great general
Żółkiewski BTFO'd Russian-Swedish forces at Klushino (7k vs. 35k), Chodkiewicz made the Swedes look like children at Kircholm, for which he received congratulations from all around Europe, and Sobieski wrecked the Turks in 1683.
>writer
many writers were quite significant, like Sienkiewicz, Mickiewicz or Kochanowski. They're just not well known in the west due to Poland's small clout at that time.
>scientist
Łukasiewicz - oil refinery. He sold his tech to Rockefeller.
Czochralski method - still used to make silicon wafers.
Skłodowska - one of 4 people, who received the Nobel price in 2 different fields.
Copernicus - obvious.
