who are objectively the smartest people in the worldand I mean by actual accomplishments not meme shit like iq
>>204262548newton
>>204262561no i meant like nationality or region wise
>>204262571askenazim and zhejiangese
Me. Bitch ass coping haters will disagree. Cool posters shall agree.
>>204262571scotland produced an unusually high number of scientists per capita from around 1700 to 1900
>>204262548for me it's still euler. not a hot take
>>204262548Archimedes
>>204262548Maybe John von NeumannIf it's the group with the per capita smartest people Jews of course, Scots as Argie anon said and Baltic Germans
>>204262561he went mad looking for doomsday in the bible though
>>204262548https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Srinivasa_RamanujanThird on pic rel unironi.
>>204262548Germanics and anyone that is in STEM knows it. They have Newton, Euler, Gauss, Leibniz, Riemann, Heisenberg, Schrodinger, Planck, von Braun could keep going on forever
>>204266532>They have Newtonkek he wasn't germanic
Magnus Carlsen
Jews and Israel
>>204262829>>204265721why scotland
>>204267626I'm not sure why myself I'm reading about it now. A lot of people seem to think it is due to their education
>>204267626Because scotland has James Clerk Maxwell whose intellectual achievement surpassed almost everyone from the 19th century except Louis Pasteur and Darwin. Why Scots genetically? Because lowland Scots are just English, theyre not ginger bearded kilt wearing whiskey drinkers. Maxwell was probably just genetically English especially considering he was part of the landed gentry, he was born into a country estate
>>204267537Its impossible to know how much british celt vs anglo saxon vs norman DNA Newton had, but Im inclined to think he was mostly germanic just because of his physical appearance (massive jaw and chin, prominent nose and eyes) and because the neighboring 100% celtic countries never achieved anything scientific at all. Its sort of a snowball effect: once germanics are established to be good at science, its highly likely that people from mixed germanic-celtic countries are germanic.
