Chapter 1018 Civilization and Nation
"There are many environments in the human world, but some environments are very unsuitable for human survival, and it is difficult to develop too strong civilizations. The most typical ones are ice fields, mountains and plateau areas. They have nothing to do with humans, but the negative impact of these areas is too great."
"Through history, humans have different categories, but there are only three types of civilizations that have truly reached their peak form."
"At the beginning, humans were nomads with no fixed place. Later, the four major agricultural civilizations ruled the world. Then the global environment changed drastically and the temperature dropped. The crazy nomad civilization went south, gradually swallowing up all agricultural civilizations except the Chinese civilization."
"After that, except for Chinese civilization, nomadic civilization dominated the world until the marine civilization completed its accumulation and dominated the world."
"Now, it is a peak duel between agricultural civilization and marine civilization, and nomadic civilization is huddled in the corner to reap the old capital."
"Agricultural civilization, nomadic civilization, and marine civilization. These three civilizations are not isolated, but have different focus."
"The three civilizations, if they follow the four dimensions of morality, cooperation, superiority and adventure, can get interesting results without considering other factors such as religion."
"A society with a civilized farming society is high morality, high cooperation, high rank and low risk."
"Because the living environment of agricultural civilization is relatively fixed, there is no need for a lot of adventures to seek food, and a good social and moral relationship is needed to ensure the stability of the ethnic group. Therefore, such a society chooses Confucianism that pays more attention to social relations, more attention to morality and hierarchy. This is in line with the theory of evolution, because the natural selection in the theory of evolution obviously also includes the social environment."
"A society of nomadic civilization is low morality, high cooperation, high rank and high adventure."
"Nomadic civilizations have no place to live and need to carry out various high-risk actions. In an overly harsh environment, the strong prey on the weak and morally low. However, in order to survive, internal cooperation has to be carried out. At the same time, in order to maintain stability, the superiors and inferiors are strict."
"A society of marine civilization is low morality, high cooperation, low rank and high risk."
"The marine environment is worse than land. Humans alone cannot survive. They must use ships in combination to carry out activities, which creates a tendency to take risks and cooperate. Also, because different people control different parts of the ships, they have certain control over the navigation process. Losing any important members is life-threatening, and the gap in their actual status is not large enough, which leads to the low rank of marine civilization. The harsh marine environment that prompts the occurrence of the strong and the strong will inevitably be a low moral society."
"When I was young, I would probably believe that a certain civilization is good, excellent, and other civilizations are inferior."
"But now, I have realized that all mankind is a large system. From a higher level, the three civilizations of ocean, nomadism and farming have been constantly communicating, whether genetically or culturally. No civilization is inferior or excellent, and it only exists whether it is suitable for the natural and social environment at that time, and whether it can develop for a long time."
Su Ye thought for a long time.
Touch the resource light ball and select the ethnic location.
"Exclude places that are overheated, cooled and too high."
“Give up the island.”
"Select a place that includes both natural harbors, fertile land with rivers and abundant grasslands."
After making a choice, hundreds of local three-dimensional maps appeared in front of Su Ye, with a vast ocean on one side, a fertile plain on the other side, and a green grassland on the other direction.
However, the resource storage of the light balls shows that the resources are insufficient, so it is impossible for their own ethnic group to move in there directly.
"I cannot enter, and other gods may not be able to enter, that is, these places are my must-fight for the future!" Su Ye quickly memorized all the local three-dimensional maps and recorded all detailed information, such as vegetation forms, topography, biological species, etc.
Subsequently, Suye made a new choice, choosing places with natural harbors, general land and abundant grasslands.
Because in the early stages, good harbors and grasslands were the most difficult to transform, while land was the easiest to transform.
This time, thousands of three-dimensional maps appeared, but they still showed that they lacked resources.
Su Ye changed the conditions again, and as a result, when choosing a port, land and grassland, the resource light ball was barely enough.
This means that my perfect start is bankrupt.
The reason why the three terrain intersections were chosen was because they were inspired by the human history of Blue Star.
In human history, such as ancient China, ancient Egypt, the Mesopotamian civilization and ancient India, are all typical agricultural civilizations and have been glorious for a long time.
Mongolian civilizations and certain civilizations are typical nomadic civilizations, and have had glorious periods and even fully captured all other civilizations except China.
Ancient Greece was a typical marine civilization. Although it did not form an empire, its ability to resist the Persian Empire was enough to reflect its strength.
Ancient Rome was not originally a marine civilization. It was originally a nomadic civilization, but later it absorbed agricultural civilization. The reason why it later became the Roman Empire was closely related to the ocean. It was itself a multi-mixed group dominated by marine civilization.
After that, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands and the most prosperous British Empire were all considered maritime civilizations, especially Britain, which were more pure.
The subsequent bad country was a mixed civilization dominated by marine civilization.
China, on the other hand, mainly agricultural civilization, has the strongest survival ability among all races, and is also the only ancient civilization that has not been exterminated. Later, it became a mixed civilization dominated by agricultural civilization, standing at the peak of the world.
The subsequent trend is unsure. It may involve industrial civilization, information civilization, biological civilization, AI civilization, space civilization, etc., which far exceed the previous multi-civilization changes that blended the three civilizations.
Suye plans to choose a region with all three oceans, plains and grasslands, form three countries, and build a complex ethnic evolution system. This has a successful precedent and is also the most successful evolution method known to mankind.
But unexpectedly, the land of creation will not allow the choice of comprehensive and fertile soil.
If you choose a place where all three are average, the resources of the light ball are enough, but what should you do if the basic resources after birth? What should you do if you encounter an accident?
Su Ye thought about it and said that the environment is more important than ordinary resources and has a great impact on people. The environment is first and resources are second. What's more, a good environment does not lack resources at all.
"Then, let's set the grasslands of the nomadic shit sticks as barren, so that they are more cruel and can form a catfish effect and become qualified shit sticks."
Among the three civilizations of farming, ocean and nomadic civilization, nomadic civilization has been brilliant and is also a veritable messenger.
They are indeed extremely destructive and destroyed many races, but it is actually difficult to defeat resilient and powerful opponents, such as China, which was eventually defeated by the agricultural civilization, and were eventually enslaved by the great powers of the marine civilization. The reason is their innate shortcomings.
History has proved that nomadic civilization can only stir up when other civilizations are weak or declining. Once other civilizations evolve into stones, nomadic civilization itself becomes a shi.
The high adaptability and low transformation of nomadic civilizations limit their long-term growth possibility, so even if they have oil, they cannot become an industrial power.
Except, new evolutions are obtained.
"With theoretical guidance and historical experience, then we must establish forces based on the characteristics of civilization."
"Agricultural civilization must establish a strong and unified empire. If it cannot be unified, the entire civilization will be destroyed. Stable social relations are the foundation of agricultural civilization. So, maintain stability..."
Su Ye suddenly realized that he underestimated those people.
"Marine civilizations are very powerful, from Greece to Rome to the British Empire and then to the bad country, but they are not unified. Therefore, the ocean civilization I established cannot be determined by the thinking of agricultural civilization, so we will establish a federal state and establish decentralization. In this way, it seems that it is not the bad people who choose to do this, but the marine civilization and culture of all generations that have led to this national model."
"As for nomadic civilization, it is logically unnecessary in the era of rapid development, but the complex system must have at least three elements, otherwise it will be impossible to build a stable and forward-looking human evolution system."
"I don't like nomadic civilizations that are too destructive, but at the level of human evolution, theory and reason are more important than what I like."
"So, I must preserve nomadic civilization. Nomadic civilization cannot establish a unified enemy country or federal country, and is more suitable for multi-tribal alliances."
"I see!"
"Different civilizations and cultures, coupled with different environments and genes, different ethnic groups are already adapted to different social environments. Any attempt to completely overthrow a certain system and introduce it into an external system will inevitably lead to a great collapse of the entire society."
"Continuously absorbing, sharing and forming orderly communication, and maintaining high learning, high competition and low confrontation are the best ways to progress in civilization."
"etc……"
Su Ye suddenly felt chills.
Because I examined the history of human development from a large-scale macro perspective, I found various similar laws, as if there was a big hand in the dark, manipulating humans, forcing humans to choose farming, oceans or nomadic civilizations and thinking, and eventually continued to spiral up.
"No wonder those bigwigs in various fields suspect that there are other existences above human beings, because they have seen various phenomena at a large scale and macro level, which is completely inconsistent with intuition."
"But, current research has proved that this is just a phenomenon of spontaneous formation of life under the choice of different natural and social environments, a wonderful self-organization."
Su Ye pondered it over and over again, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
"I should look at environmental choices from a dynamic perspective."
"The Land of Creation does not give me a full map, all choices are partial. But with the continuous choice just now, I have pieced together a vague world puzzle of the Creation Land of Creation based on the ecological environment of each map. Except for a few local areas that cannot be determined, the appearance of the entire world has been generally determined."
A huge spherical map appeared in Su Ye's mind.
However, most of the map is black, and only a few places are shiny, showing land or ocean.
Even so, Su Ye can confirm a lot of information.
After all, geography knowledge is common.
