White raven [17]

The roots of the human civilizations are mostly associated with the Asian continent because most of the early civilizations developed here, like the Sumerians, Persians, Phoenicians, Babylonians, Chinese, Hindus. These civilizations, especially the ones from the southwestern part of Asia, played a key role in the development of the civilizations along the Mediterranean in Europe, since they were borrowing culture, alphabet, math, lots of inventions, mythology etc. After their cultural traits were accepted in Europe, they started to spread around even more, and gave the basis for the development of lots of other civilizations.
