| vlad321 said: Absolute bullshit. The Byzantine Empire is what preserved culture trouughout all of Europe. While France is the oldest technically, they were absolutely pathetic compared to all the knowledge and culture preserved in the Byzantine Empire. Saying the Moors perserved culture is as stupid as saying the Catholic church perserved culture. In fact, Muslims fucked everything up. When the Ottoman empire took over the Byzantine Empire, the Renaissance had basically just begun in Constantinople. In fact the Renaissance happened because of the immigration of great thinkers from the Byzantine Empire to Italy. |
You can ignore history and all. It won't change. I provided a link that proves my point. And what do the Ottomans have to do with this? I was talking about the Moors.
