Who knows if because they did not enter into contact with the Graeco-Roman Civilization?

Alright, that's a part a joke. And part serious too.

Then you have a lot of explaining to do. For example, Northern Africa had an already advanced Civilization, when other people who comform modern Europe had nothing alike. And I'm not going as far back as Egypt, but Carthage.

Had Rome not defeated Carthage, things would have been much different and, being the center of the civilized world in Carthage and not in Rome, it is highly unlikely that the so-called Barbarians from the North would have been able to reach the neuralgic center of "Civilization". But sure, then it might have been the Barbarians from the South.

But I'm afraid that this is something that should not be said so clearly, because the flip side of the politically correct coin is going to label it with the usual anti-germanic or anti-nordic. Which is not. Since it is not me who defines nations in the primitivistic sub-racial ways that they do.

And yet Carthage was destroyed, Northern Africa continued to be one of the richest provinces of Imperial Rome. That is, until another Europid people took over it: the Vandals. So much it was an important province, that virtually all of the efforts of the Roman Empire during the peak of the Barbarian invasions, were directed to save the provinces of the Eastern Roman Empire and the Tingitania. While the provinces of the Western Roman Empire (Hispania, Gallia, Britannia), except for some interventions later on, saw how the Legions departed to protect other parts of the Empire and, at best, they were left at their fate under federated troops (something could be said about leaving wolves to cater for the sheep). But that's another story.

So it doesn't quite work like you would like to imagine it. But it should be noticed that the example that has been chosen is a bit too extreme. There are some races which are certainly more primitive than others, as is the case of the Australian Aborigines and the Khoi-San from Southern Africa.

Having said this, I do not deny the differences but I warn against generalizing and overplaying the roles of these differences, while not putting them within context.

Races don't only differ physically but also psychologically that’s why I find it inconceivable that Germany could be what it is today should it have been made up of Mongolids, Australian Aborigines or Negrids.

Speaking of generalizing, you have named the Mongolids. I should strongly remind you here of the millenary Civilization of the Chinese, when the Europeans were far behind them.

And, in fact, if it had not been because the Portuguese set themselves to voyages of Discovery that allowed Europeans to expand and dominate the World, at a time when a Chinese Emperor had already decreed a strict policy of isolation and restricted their navigation voyages, Europe again would have been something very different.


So what is important in connection to culture? Race? Well, it is to a point but then again its importance is arguable and certainly overplayed on certain circles. It is for those whose insignificance is a role model of life to cry out and overplay its importance in civilizational terms, as it is their only means to hold to it.

Still the question remains. What is really important in connection to culture? And the answer is Caste. How a society organizes its system of castes will in the longer term decide its success or its defeat.

And here I will repeat what I've been saying one time and again, for a very long time: if you expand a view based on egalitarianism, no matter if it is based on social class (Socialism) or race (National Socialism, White Nationalism, Nordicism, etc.), or else (other "socialistic") you are building the foundations to finish off with that society, nation, ... race.
