One Thing is for sure …North European Civilisation was always a spot of Humann History were it was more Isolated then other regions ….and also im convinced more and more when im reading History North European Nations had an Complex of they own identity or lets say a reaction of what other Civilisation had done in there History like the Muslim Civilisation……and lets be honest …..Generaly Europeans tend to manipulate History ,why im saying it …when we look at the Dark Ages of Europe it was a dark Age for Europe but not for other Nations and Civilisation like for the Muslims …..when Muslim Andulisia was the center of Scientist world it was not for Europe …..and also one note the Renessaince couldnt happend without the Inspiration of the Muslim Civilisation because it was like a opponent who brings out of you the best or remind you that you have to become better like in Sport …..so this Chronologie of Dark Age into the Renessaince is to easy to explain it that way ….the process was more complex ….and Modern Europe today is not in that Position what we know as the Western Civilisation by accident …it was a process of many Positive but also many Negative steps into the leading Civilisation what we knowing since over 100 years lets say …..So Human History its not always that easy , black and white ….no its a very dynamic process …..
