That conquering others is not cool. I am certainly not ashamed of what europeans did in the past. Its pretty cool if you were not on the receiving end.
Not Cool? Please, if Europeans didn't conquer other others would conquer them. And Europeans brought food, medicine, technology, politics and economics to all region they conquered. If those nations were so much better they would keep their own but they chose to adapt western stuff because western stuff is simply better
This whole shaming of Europeans is getting ridiculous because if it was anyone else that was first they would do the same
Its not the center. It only has a large influence in certain aspects of life.
This is also something I do not like. I take suits as an example for this. I would much rather see Japanese officials in traditional japanese clothers than in suits.
Europe and USA like it or not is centre of culture and life standard. You don't see many immigrants flock to China or Japan or Brazil and other. Not to say those nations don't have their own good stuff, they do, but Europe and USA are cut above them
Even Japanese adopted western clothing.
