He already had his fair share of the greeks since he's in STEM (Democritus, Pythagoras, Eratosthenes etc)

The Germans are the best OP.

germans are end game of all greek conceptions techne, just look at the compounds

All the regions that have great philosophers also have great mathematicians/physicists/chemists/biologists.

Except for Asia.
The only ones they had were some Astronomers and out of Babylon came some great theorems but otherwise bleak.

You two could watch Der Ring des Nibelungen together, (serious suggestion), I recommend the Barenboim 1991 version in blu ray. Get together and the surround sound up and prepare your anuses.

'By this usage, the very region to which "Asia" was first applied is now Europe.'

>A third definition emphasizes transformation in place from one continent to another. Fahey at first defines Turkey as transcontinental by virtue of being in both Anatolia and the Balkans, neglecting the historical circumstance that the Balkans as part of the Ottoman Empire were once Asian, as was much of North Africa. He then hypothesizes that Turkey, accepted into the European Union, is defined by that circumstance to be European.[24] By this usage, the very region to which "Asia" was first applied is now Europe. If it is, Turkey cannot be transcontinental by being split between two continents. This sort of paradox only underlines that Asia has no precise definition in the same way that nations do, to whom a mere 100 yards of border may be of great concern.
