To add to that, a lot of this modern progress was timed with the rise of protestsnism and a certain country specifically found as a refuge for persecuted protestants (not atheists). But that is just one factor, you also have trans-atlantic slave trading and the raping of africa and the colonization of india, all of this allowed many in the west less time in the farms and stables and more time at universities and studying. Isaac newton was forced to go back home and labor in the farm for a while until people convinced his mom to send him back to uni for example. |
