Many people see the 108 for Hong Kong and think that is the average for China. Furthermore, Lynn et al. often uses PISA scores as proxies for IQ tests. It's no secret that China, for example, has been only selecting its top students in Shanghai to write it.
People need to realize that most countries don't have good IQ samples (and the testing they do do usually are biased towards the extremes of the spectrum) and standardized tests are used instead.
I tend to avoid using the n-word, but it's like you never read roots.
The biggest slavers in African countries were other Africans of competing tribes.
Even the perception of racial differences results in a fucking race war and ensuing genocide there.
Ever heard of Rwanda?
Im not claiming to be an expert, but if you isolated Africa and South America like the person you're responding to - particularly before lifetime slavery became hugely popular - you likely would have a lot of tribal infighting until someone tripped over themselves hard enough to develop sophisticated war machines.

That's great. Go back to Europe. AMERICA FOR THE AMERINDIANS.
>you likely would have a lot of tribal infighting until someone tripped over themselves hard enough to develop sophisticated war machines.
Indeed. That's a basic developmental step of any civilization.
Incas were superior to europeans.
>south america
They were in the bronze age. They arrived 15000 years after savage europeans settled on Europe.
We are replacing you. You can't do anything. Your race is dying.
United Hispanic States.
But to be clear, though,
Without the developments in math and science brought about by the incredibly fortunate rapid-but-not-crushing arms race between the states of Europe, much of them would still be tribal - such as how many countries still are.
But tribal states can still modernize if they take unilateral action - take Japan's adaptation of dutch military in the transition from the Edo to the Meiji period.
What keeps many countries in 'Third World' status is shit like basic birth control, lack of public education, and the corruption of whatever political leaders they have.
Then why were they conquered by Europeans? Moron.
>conquered
Incorrect. We were genocided. The pestilence of the dirty european who didn't know how to take a bath, brought dangerous bacteria to our lands. The civil war we were experiencing left our empire celebrating it. The natives were the protagonist of the fall of the empire.
Subhuman europeans didn't conquer shit. They only keep doing what they did on europe. They backstabbed everyone even their own men.
AMERICA belongs to the AMERINDIANS.
I do have sympathy for the plight of native American (both north and south, of course), and I admire their mathematical, astrological, and cultural achievements. Yes disease played a role in their demise, but you are a fool if you deny that European technology and warfare didn't equally aid their victory.
