>why didn't three (3) dudes in the entire history of the country, whose works were virtually unknown until some monk discovered their Latin translations 1500 years later, singlehandedly raise the IQ of an area that had no infrastructure to speak of by 50 pointsI dunno bro
>>221391928thisis Shart uuuuuuuuuuughhhhhh*farts*
>>221391951Romans were invaded by Germanics and they adopted Latin (Franks, Visigoths, Lombards, Ostrogoths, Burgundians, etc)Why didn't Slavs adopt Greek?
>>221392012Some of them did.
>>221391928this was never the Greeks fault. If the Brits, Russia, France, Germany, USA, Japan, Mexico, Kenya, Singapore, Myanmar, Mao, Lenin, M.J, ABBA, Kanye West... had helped kill all the Turks in ww1 (as they did in 1821 in greece) a glorious byzantine empire would exist now. However the end of the Turks is soon. They are collaborating with many countries to eliminate the Turks.
