how is it "racist" It's far too generous i mean I wouldn't even describe latin america civilised today let alone 200 years ago
Thank God we are not Latin Americans
>1830s Spain
>Civilized
>Senegal and the Gambia civilized
>Most of Africa on the same level as Russia
Nice
Also this is a pretty good map for 200 years ago
Kinda fucked up how they turned India and china into shitholes and have the audacity to call them uncivilized after the fact. 4000 years prior to this map, the opposite was true

I mean thats true for every point of history prior to ours desu. Imagine living in industrial Britain where pollution was everywhere, child labor and they're limbs getting cut up all the time. Yuck.
But to earlier point yeah, its all really a measure of when. A indus riv civ India would be considered light years ahead in technological advancement/civ compared to what the brits were up to at that time. Id said even up until the romans showed up it was pretty much a shithole.
Turku, I kneel.
