—“Well Darwin believed that evolution was driven by selection. That’s essentially Darwin’s contribution. And it’s true for big populations, but it has limits.
The limits are you need big populations in order for selection to be dominant. If you have small populations, then random drift is actually more important than selection. That’s the Kimura theory. Kimura called it the neutral theory of evolution and he wrote a book about it which was widely ignored by all the orthodox biologists.
But I think he was right. And in fact, it happens that small populations are very important in evolution. In fact, you have to have a small population to start a new species, almost by definition. So small populations have a controlling effect on starting new species and also in the extension of old species.
So this neutral regime where the selection is not important may, in fact, be the real driving force of evolution when you come to a new species. And of course, if that’s true, it changes the picture in many ways.”— Freeman Dyson

Further, this is a quantitative exercise – not qualitative. E.g. France has no Michaelangelo.
If accomplishment is a qualitative measure – which it must surely must be – Murray is calculating rather primitively.Jun 20, 2018 11:34amCurt Doolittletake a look at his methodology – it’s the first part of the book. at the very least it’s neutral. But it’s hard to argue with.Jun 20, 2018 1:10pmAaron Kahland@[741197263:2048:Curt Doolittle] will readJun 20, 2018 1:44pmBjorn MoritzSo, basically all the Germanic people.Jun 20, 2018 3:38pmChris@[1420794899:2048:Aaron Kahland] Plus its easy to frame an argument when you use time limited stats. The scope and scale of relative human accomplishment in all branches of academia is easily unparalleled by the ancient Greeks.

THERE IS NO NATIONAL INTEREST WITHOUT A NATION
There is no national interest without a nation. A nation consists of a tribe of people of not dissimilar language, myths, rituals, traditions, and laws.
If there are competing interests on any of those things you have a bureaucratic empire, not a nation-state.

WHY WAS THE EMPIRE LOST?
Well, it was lost by fighting a pair of unnecessary wars in which Germany was in the right, and thereby hollowing out Europe of it’s ancient cultural origins. Doing so collapsed the empire. And the people did not immediately replace a global imperial government with a local national one. As such Britain as much as France, drove marxist imperialism just as hard as the soviets.
The problem was not gutting the government OR working with the USA to restore the British empire. One or the other. But in typical British fashion, just as the french lost their civilization at the loss of the monarchy, just as the Spanish civilization died at their loss of empire, and British lost theirs – and became as useless as the french and Spanish.
Between 1830 and 1914 the British broke from germanic civilization and became Diasporics in every possible sense.

—“Linguists date the split of Proto-Indo-European dialects into what would become Germanic and Slavic languages to just before 3000 BC, which is incidentally around the same date geneticists point to as the calculated split of the paternal haplogroup R1a1a (R-M417) into specific Germanic and Slavic subclades. The R1a1a lineage is associated with human remains of the Corded Ware culture, a highly interconnected archaeological horizon where some of the oldest remains of genetically modern North Europeans are found, emerging as mounted warriors from the steppe conquered the North European plain.”— Aryandom
