Theres a reason why this climactic region is specifically called the cradle of all civilizations that shaped humanity todayAnything above gets too cold and anything below gets too hot
>>540162901Yet humanity develops through hardship.
>>540162901Then explain why the world is dominated by Germanics and Sino-Japs? Harsh siberian winters and shit german lands produce intelligent people
>>540163018He said cradle of civilization, not today.
>>540163018The ideal temperature range for peak cognitive efficiency sits in a relatively narrow band: 20°C–22°C (68°F–72°F). Deviating significantly above or below this sweet spot forces the brain to spend energy on thermal survival rather than raw thinking speed.Before man moved to the temperates, they already had built ways to survive. The inhabitants of those temperate zones were considered barbarians in the past
The only advantages the temperates had over the tropics is diseases. Tropical diseases overall are more deadly and rife in the past and most people who inhabited the tropics back then would die from them before they could do anything whereas in temperate zones thanks to long freeze spells, many bacteria/viruses wouldn’t survive

>>540162901>memeflagthe time period where the sumerians were around it was probably 40 thousand+ years ago, with their 5 first cities on Earth.So their climate was much more chill than now because of glaciation.

>>540162901Hundreds of years to get a headstart and ended getting btfoed by 5 European countries how tragic
>>540163146You're gonna ignore the vast number of creatures outside ready to kill you the further south you go?
>>540162901>History has taught us that the subtropics are where humanity thrivesthis was only true before the industrial revolution and technological progressthe climate in the subtropics is shit for machinesand makes the regular work schedules you need more difficultthere's a reason why the only thriving economies that are not kinda cold are city states are heavily service basedeven in countries like China or the USA that have nearly all climate regionsthe relevant industry is mostly in the northern partsand only satellite plants or very specific industries are in the south (everything human centered)also climate change makes cold climates even more attractivemammals deal with cold far better than with heat in general
