One famous speculation about the impact of China’s geography comes from Jared Diamond’s book Guns, Germs, and Steel.Diamond says that China’s geography initially helped the country. He says (on p. 414) that China’s heartland did not have many barriers to break it up. Its two major river valleys were easily connected. This allowed the civilization of the north to interact with the civilization of the south. The two civilizations could share ideas and strengthen one another. This, Diamond says, helped China become a very strong and advanced country by the early 1400s. At that point, it was more developed than European countries were. Thus, its geography helped it by allowing it to become a unified civilization very quickly.However, Diamond says that this geography then caused China to lose its lead over Europe. Because China was so geographically interconnected, it was able to become one unified country instead of being many small countries as existed in Western Europe. In Europe, the countries competed with one another and forced each other to develop. In China, there was only one country and there was no competition. This meant that China did not have to keep progressing. It could stagnate in terms of technology without being conquered by other neighboring countries. Because China was united and unchallenged, it did not have to get stronger. In this way, Diamond says, its geography, which had once helped it rise, also helped make it fall.
Christianity is the largest religion in Europe. Christianity has been practiced in Europe since the 1st century, and a number of the Pauline Epistles were addressed to Christians living in Greece, as well as the Roman Empire.
According to a survey by the Pew Research Center in 2012, found that 76.2% of Europeans considered themselves Christians.
Catholics were at the time of the survey the largest Christian group in Europe, accounting for more than 48% of European Christians.The second-largest Christian group in Europe were the Orthodox, who made up 32% of European Christians.Although the Protestant Reformation began in Europe, only about 19% of European Christians were part of the Protestant tradition. Russia is the largest Christian country in Europe by population, followed by Germany and Italy.
For at least a millennium and a half, Europe has been nearly equivalent to Christian culture, even though the religion was inherited from the Middle East. Christian culture was the predominant force in Western civilization, guiding the course of philosophy, art, and science.
Europe has a rich Christian culture, especially as numerous saints, martyrs and popes were European themselves. All of the popes from 741 to 2013 were from Europe. Europe brought together many of the Christian holy sites and heritage and religious centers.
