I’m not denying that, but just asking to be proportional. You see China in the first map? It was actually nowhere near being an imperium itself. Do you understand my point on proportionality? During a storm you don’t say apples fall because of gravity.
Please could you point in the map the ‘non western imperialism’ that also influenced the middle east?
Consider imperialist influence being directly proportional to governance exploitation multiplied by governed time.
Also if you really want to go earlier in history of instability and violence…
So you’re saying china and Russia have had no imperialist influence on the middle east?
If you’re going to make that assertion, then I don’t think you’re arguing in good faith or will listen to reason.

I really have no idea what point you’re trying to make here?
