Europe was a backward hellhole before the 1500s and wasn’t really “modern” by any standard until the 19th century, which very curiously coincided with the Scramble for Africa. Hmm, interesting.

Didn’t you hear? They spent it and everything they have since the 1960s is due to hard work and intelligence (just don’t ask whose).
