Yeah, last time I checked Britain was in Europe, with the underlying populace formed from invasions of Celts (Bronze Age Central Europe), Normans (French), Romans (Italians), Vikings (Scandinavians) and Saxons (Germans) and later various immigration.
fine by me -- however you describe it.
in the same vein were EURASIA considered a landmass in itself -- SEPARATE from islands in the peripheries -- which can be considered extensions of break-away parts in the movement of continentns --
japan, hongkong, philippines, indonesia, etc...can be considered "non-eurasian"
HOWEVER there is a distinction as to what constitutes cultures .
the WEST have considered themselves some kind fo ''global rulers" -- NOT satisfed with their own empires and kingdoms and quarrels to the point of going across oceans to order other cultures around .
at the end of the day - EUROPE as a culture is but a TINY SLIVER of human presence that ought by now - to STOP your notions that the world revolves around what london or washington dc say or brussels...
and thinking you can isolate a russia or china unless they ''take their place in the international community'' according to this so-called ''europa"...notions of yours.
just as your ''europe" took turns to tell others in places across the world that they exist in order to serve YOUR ''west" - be it as overlords in countries -- with your NATO EXPANSION AND GIVING itself ''reasons" to go to LIBYA or talk of ''sanctions against iran" - or tell the russians they are somehow not ''good enough" unless they sell their souls to your ''angl0saxon/;celtic,scandinavian.american" whatever west you call it notions of order...
i'll ;put it this way -- without the REST OF THE GREATER LANDMASS that comrpises EURASIA -- -- OR THE ASIA part of it beyond the borders of poland , bulgaria, romania
what are you really?
you're tiny part of human civilization with LITTLE resources or expanse and room to grow in even amongst yourselves...that depends
to a very great extent on IMPORTED ON THE CHEAP GOODIES and resources from other lands YOUR system has rigged global relations with your imperialisms
in order to enrich and build your empires and ''civilziations" .
KAZAKHSTAN in central asia alone can SWALLOW all of continental europe...and has little or nothing to do with what europe developed as cultures - except that europe wants that richness under the land ...along with russia's china,s and other lands...
so what i am really talking about is
people of certain ENDS of the earth or continents who derive from such a TINY limited area who quarrel among themselves endlessly - far more than n other regions --
and EXPORT their quarrels as to whose turn it is to be ''ruler" of th eWORLD -
such as through your rigged institutions -
shouldn't be telling peoples n the majorities elsewhere sitting on vast lands and resources that they have to kneel before your overlords.
and that in order that they ''comply" your countries ply the world with your armadas wth NOTHING to protect really BUT the PIRACY of europe upon other lands and the power of 'threat" .
uch as amerca\'s ''freedom of navigation" fake excuses in being where it doesn't belong -- where its ''investments' DON'T create jobs for people -- but in fact DESTROY livelihoods -- unlike what china, or iran or russia are doing as they construct REAL beneficial relations with countries.
i sometimes wonder -- were the ORIENTAL and larger size of eurasia (which inlucde russia -- at least as quite a sizable part of russian philosophers themselves consider as their being ORIENTALISTS) -
TO COME UP with the means, the finance and construct the ''EURASIAN INTEGRATION FROM VLADIVOSTOK TO LISBON"
they might as well put a big,k big FENCE separating ''EUROPE" RIGHT AT THE BALTICS, POLAND, ETC...
since - it's YOU ''westerners" that have been at IT -- this game of ''isolate rusisa, russia is A THREAT, russia must be conquered, russia must be contorlled. "
LIKE RUSSIA IS SOME ALIEN in HER OWN HUGE CONTINENT of which YOU wetserners are but a SMALL part - with half of you even hardly connected by land -
and let you all iin the west wallow in your own internecine jealousies as to who is the KING of the SHINING CITY on the HILL"
that the rest of the wider world doesn't have to be bothered with.
and then when your leaders and nstitutions and THNKING start BEHAVING like you OUGHT to -- whch is: thjat you ARE NOT the rulers or arbiters of anything N THIS WORLD about how other countries should behave among thesmelves
then you can be ALLOWED to enter and do trade . lol. and if you don't like it
go and build your spaceships
and bring your queen to
EUROPA the moon of jupiter. lol.
