Çözüm Açıklaması

By the 13th century, as a separate and practical entity, Western (European) civilization began to advance, arising from the worst excesses of the Dark Ages. Many of basic institutions and ideas, such as universities, and representative assemblies, were worked out in the 12th and 13th centuries. But this Western (European) civilization was restricted to a very small area. Its center was in the North, in a triangle between Paris, Cologne, and London. The exterior countries such as Spain, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, Poland, Bohemia (Czech Republic), and Italy – did not share in all the manifestations of this civilization; nevertheless, they accepted its basic ideas as Christianity. Furthermore, beyond these countries the impact of this new civilization dropped off sharply. It had little effect on the Moslem world or on the peoples of Africa and Asia who lived beyond the Moslem areas. It had some influence on Byzantium, but not enough to erase the variances that separated Byzantium from the West. The Mongol conquest of the 13th century weakened the ties that the Russians had with the West and forced them to face the East for two centuries. Great voyages of exploration and significant mechanical inventions both began in the 15th century,enabling Western (European) civilization to emerge from its narrow corner and spread throughout much of the world. Eastern Europe gradually accepted much of the civilization of the West. Three new continents – North America (principally colonized by the British, French, Spanish, and Dutch), South America (principally colonized the Portuguese and the Spanish), and Australia (with New Zealand) – were occupied by Europeans, and a fourth continent, Africa, was dominated by them (later to be colonized by European countries). Asia was profoundly influenced, mostly by the British, Portuguese, and Dutch.
