The rise of great empires throughout Eurasia; from
the West (Britain, France, Portugal, Spain, Italy) and in the East (China, Japan, Russia) were the molding powers of America and
Africa, as the cultures of Eurasia had advanced to a point higher than the
cultures of America and Africa (in terms of technology and military
power), who were in a still tribal state in the centuries of the great
imperial conquests. The way
in which Eurasia developed and fought wars between their empires,
forced them and led to the search of new lands, riches and slaves, to
gain power, which ended up taking them to Africa and America. There the Europeans, totally changed by force the lives and development of their civilizations and people. But
by connecting (even in violent ways) they laid the foundations of the
present world, connecting all continents and spreading knowledge of
ancient Eurasia.
