I’ll group them geographically, consider their collective impact (innovations, culture, influence), and score out of 10. Here’s the breakdown: Mediterranean (Ancient Greece, Rome, Byzantium) - 9.5/10 Greece gave philosophy, democracy, and science foundations; Rome added engineering, law, and governance; Byzantium preserved it all. Massive cultural and structural legacy across Europe and beyond.
East Asia (Ancient China, Korea, Japan) - 9/10 China’s gunpowder, paper, printing, and bureaucracy dominate, with Korea’s early metal printing and Japan’s cultural refinement (e.g., Heian period) adding depth. Consistent, world-changing output.
Middle East (Mesopotamia, Persia, Islamic Caliphates) - 8.5/10 Mesopotamia birthed cities, writing, and law; Persia scaled administration; Caliphates (pre-1500) advanced math (algebra), medicine, and preserved knowledge. Foundational but fragmented over time.
South Asia (Indus Valley, Maurya, Gupta) - 8/10 Indus Valley’s urban planning, India’s zero, decimal system, and religions (Hinduism, Buddhism) spread far. Brilliant peaks, but less sustained global reach than others.
North Africa (Egypt, Carthage) - 7.5/10 Egypt’s pyramids, writing, and longevity stand out; Carthage added trade and naval power. Influential early, but impact waned post-antiquity.
Mesoamerica (Olmec, Maya, Aztec) - 7/10 Maya’s astronomy, zero, and calendars; Olmec’s early culture; Aztec’s empire-building. Impressive regionally, but isolated from global exchange.
Andes (Inca, Moche, Tiwanaku) - 6.5/10 Inca’s roads, agriculture (terracing), and administration; earlier cultures’ metallurgy and art. Ingenious but limited by geography and late bloom (Inca peak nears 1500).
Sub-Saharan Africa (Nubia, Aksum, Ghana) - 6/10 Nubia’s trade and pyramids, Aksum’s coinage and architecture, Ghana’s gold wealth. Significant locally, but less documented innovation or global reach pre-1500.
Northern Europe (Celts, Vikings) - 5.5/10 Celts’ art and ironwork, Vikings’ exploration and shipbuilding. Bold and mobile, but contributions were narrower and less transformative.
Oceania (Polynesia, Aboriginal Australia) - 5/10 Polynesia’s navigation and island colonization; Australia’s oral traditions and tools. Remarkable adaptation, but smaller scale and tech impact.
This reflects total contributions by region up to 1500 AD, balancing innovation, influence, and longevity. Let me know if you’d like a deeper dive into any area!
