Why is china so upset with Lithuania? I think Lithuania still has one china policy but allowed Taiwan to set up an office for trade purposes. Lot of countries do that. Don't they ?
I was painting a broad canvass - Protestant Europeans viewed catholics with contempt - and generally Protestant ones were Northern ones. in addition there is another layer of contempt towards southern europeans in general with various stereotypes.
how did the liberation turn out for Russians...
Civilizations have grown in all cultures. Infact what is a civilization - its an organization of human society so it can produce the maximum amount of valuable goods and services possible. Using that premise and on a per capita basis - yes the west (western europe and north america) have a high...

I think its easier than lot of people imagine. First thing is stop chasing whites only or chinese ethnicity only. There is humongous talent in south asia and africa. Thanks to dysfunctional governance there the top talent migrates abroad as opposed to west where top talent tends to remain there...
Agreed. Us defenitely perfected its recipe to attract global talent. But i think China too can do it. China has shown it can rejuvenate itself and re-invent itself as necessary.
