There are two major civilizations in the world.

Eastern Civilization in based and started in China and extends to surrounding countries. It has origins that go back 5,000-9,000 years. The East will always be based in China due to the fact that Eastern culture and people originated from here.

Western Civilization started in the Nile Valley of Egypt, gained a lot of strength in West Asia and Europe and then spread to today's status as the dominant civilization of the world due to the fact that the East become receptive to Western power and ideas.

Thus all of civilization in humanity now is ultimately one Western civilization based on what ultimately started in Egypt. The only other civilization (East) is still a part of the single world Western civilization due to the influence of modern trade/power and thus this makes the Eastern civilization no longer based on any forms of power/control but now based on culture and rhetoric.

  1. Arguing Egypt as the sole source of western civilization, totally ignores the Fertile Crescent and the civilizations that began there. Writing, domestication of crops and similar events started there, not Egypt.

    Our culture owes much to the Greeks and the Romans. Their heritage is more home grown and not owning much to Egypt.

    It seems you just picked Egypt (because it's old?) when there are many cultures that have contributed to our current one.


  2. Good luck with that.  Old school Diffusionism, especially Kemetic Diffusionism, went the way of big game hunting, taxidermy for the common man, and coal powered kitchen stoves.
