How did MENA go from rivaling or being superior to European society, to now being CENTURIES behind them?

Unironically, slavery made it so they didn’t need to innovate as they could just breed more slaves. Why the Egyptian, Roman, and Arab civilizations stagnated. Same would’ve happened to (you), by the way, if not for emancipation.

>>137061034 id say thats a pretty good progress since this country 100 years ago was unlivable and most of its inhabitants were nomadic people who roam around for water sources and raid and fight each other and have endless tribal wars over water there was no infrastructure to speak of up untill the 60s

>>137062185 You're probably baiting, but I'll clue you in just in case Economy is measured in GDP. The higher the population, the bigger the GDP is That's why Iceland has low GDP despite being rich (they have only 300 thousand people), and India has high GDP, despite being poor street-shitting retards (1,3 billion people)

Exploitation of American resources and slave labour in the new continent. Up until 1492, the turks were really the dominant force.

>>137072161 And this of course. Important to note that ME was more progressive and secular than Europe during a very long period. Fundamentalism and political islam is, bar some exceptions, quite a recent invention. For centuries the muslim world beat the christian world on all fronts until after the mongol invasions and black death (which was a godsent for European prosperity and culture in the long run).
