If Christian Iberians never pushed back against Berbers there would be no discovery of America by Columbus and USA would never exist.
wtf i hate reconquista now?
>>215360865uou wouldn't exist either Roberto
Conquest of america was bound to happen anyhowThe meso-andean cultures were stagnant and unable to develop further
>>215360772there would be no reason to discover america because the conditions that lead iberians to go there wouldn't exist (ottomans blocking the silk road)

>>215361191not true, they were pretty advanced in a ton of ways and the aztec empire would have accelerated that if they were never conquered.
America would have been discovered and colonized by italians, and it would be called...America
>>215363051>2kb
>>215360772you are assuming nobody else would want to circumnavigate the African coast or check if the mysterious other half of the globe is really just empty ocean. I'd say the italians would do it (wait I just remembered in our timeline an italian did it, so...)
It would be the British/Dutch instead. They were all going through similar phases (distributed kingdoms/fiefdoms uniting into singular power states), and being seafaring people would have naturally ended up there.
>>215360772Worse, we would never find the maritime way to India.Just imagine a world where Indians where left there, without any contact with civilization.
>>215365731europeans would never be able to spice dem food if that happened
>>215361220if i hear this reddit meme again i swear to fucking fgod
>>215365766It's a sacrifice I'd be willing to make.
>>215365731>imagine a world where Indians where left there, without any contact with civilization.well at least the trip to Japan was very kino.
>>215360772Wouldn't it be funny if it were Muslims doing the first contact with the new continent?
>>215365731>any contact with civilizationYou mean euro swamp civilisation? India had trade relations with many important countries in Asia
>>215365603According to a Spanish author who has spent his life and written several books on Columbus the man descended from a Scottish man who migrated to Italy in the 9th century and his real name was Peter Scot or Pedro Scotto and he changed it because he was serving a pirate
>>215365909unironically it would have been better than spain, christianity is the most primitive and ugly religion in the world. at least muslims were more tolerant and just taxed non-believers.
>215366157bait
>>215366157>Muslims>tolerantThere is a reason why Christianity disappeared from its birthplace and homeland, and why you've never heard of things like "Zoroastrianism" which once dominated MENA
>>215366014>"historical" schizobabble
>>215366157This anon knows.
>>215365677>British/DutchThey were only able to do transatlantic routes when they (the brits) stole the maps from a Spanish ship.
>>215363119Iberian excellence >>215364765800 years
>>215366280more tolerant than christianity i meanchristians sacrificed you to jehova if they thought you might secretly still be harboring muslim or jewish beliefs
