Thus, the geography hypothesis is not a major factor in the progress of Europeans, but only as one of the factors that makes Europeans more advanced. In fact, many East Asians are more advanced than Europeans.

In general, why are Europeans more advanced than Asians?

In short, the Europeans were condemned to live in order. They used to save money and make plans.

Why?

I told you for example yes ...

Once upon a time, there was a young farmer in northern England named Arthur Francis, who lived in medieval times with his grandparents, grandmothers, and mother.

Let's just say Arthur was a handsome farmer from medieval times.

Arthur was just a poor farmer working on a patch of land with his grandfather. They farm wheat.

Arthur's humble home

The winter in their place is quite cold and lasts for 3 months, but only 1-1.5 months are covered in snow. When covered in snow, they cannot plant anything because of the soil freezes.

Arthur and his family were wasteful in consuming wheat. They never calculate their wheat consumption. 

Often during the abundant harvest they feast on consuming large amounts of wheat and some of it they sell for binge eating. When wintering occurs they are also often deficient in wheat.

And, once upon a time there was a severe winter, usually only 1 month where they were covered in snow, but in this winter the snow has covered their place for 3 months. In the middle of winter, Arthur and his family began to lack wheat. 

Over time, their wheat was depleted for daily consumption. There was starvation due to running out of harvest due to the long winter.

Luckily, they survived. After that long winter, they learned a lot of so that the wheat deficit would not happen again. They agreed that similar incidents would not happen again.

After a heated debate, Arthur and his family have made a mutual agreement that must be implemented, including:

• Consume only a maximum of 0.5 kg of wheat per person per day. This means, the whole family will only consume as much as 60 kg of wheat per month or 720 kg per year.
• Set a minimum wheat production target of 720 kg per harvest.
• Set aside the wheat harvest in anticipation of the arrival of a long winter. The stock of wheat that must be set aside is equivalent to 3 months of consumption or the equivalent of 60 kg multiplied by 3 months, the result is 180 kg.
• And once upon a time, a long winter of 3 months happened again. Fortunately, they had anticipated by storing 180 kg of enough wheat stock for the consumption of the whole family for 3 months.

The famine caused by the wheat crisis has never happened again since they saved wheat stocks and made plans for wheat consumption and production.

Now, after reading the story above, the severe winter has made Arthur's family wiser in managing their wheat harvest. 

The state of nature forces them to save their harvest stock and make planning for the management of the harvest. If they don't make plan or break them, they're bound to starve.

Such conditions are not found in tropical Countries of Asia, where they are spoiled by nature because their soil can be used at any time of the year. As a result, they are not used to saving and planning.

Europeans are used to saving and planning and complying. No wonder, European are more advanced than Asian (nations in the tropics of Asia).
