Leaving Africa might have been the most important or the birth of modern humans would definitely top humanity's history

this desu. agriculture would be third probably

no, that were Punic Wars

how the fuck are punic wars relevant or comparable to discovering a whole new continent where you meet up with a race of humans that have been cutoff from the rest of humanity and civilization for 20000 years
thats like comparing some shitty asteroid landing to the moon landing

no

The farther you go back, the more important the event is. Some caveman deciding to shit in a different bush and not getting stomped by a mammoth is probably much more important than any modern human history.

Do you know what history is?

>Whole history
He didn't say written history to what you're implying towards. English isn't your native language so i do not fault you or the Spaniard.

but in the overall scheme of things, 90% of people in the world only knew about the existance of europe, africa and asia
imagine finding a new continent that has never been found before
that will NEVER happen again
the age of exploration and discovery is over
like, imagine landing in a land that you know literally nothing about, and assuming its some east asian islands only to find out later that its a whole new landmass that NOBODY knew about besides for the few tribes living there

Because it decided the dominant culture of mediterrean sea basin, and in conseqence that of the most of the world, would be phoenician or latin, which has consequences going to this very day as deeply as the fucking alphabet we use.

Absolutely, around ~1500 the World became a single historical arena for the first time in history. Nothing will ever be comparable.

Even natural history is still history brainlet. Not having people to write it down doesnt mean it isnt history.

It largely depends on perspective. I consider an important event as something that has a large noticeable impact on the world as a whole. The discovery of the Americas surely falls into this category.

But the Americas would of been discovered by eventually no matter what. And its importance didn't come into fruition for a few centuries, it was nothing but a piggy bank for a large while. Some dope ass potatoes and tomatoes though

Can you imagine how different the world today would look if for example Rome lost the Punic wars and never Latin-ized large swathes of Europe? Or if Christianity never rose to prominance?

What if China kept towards a path of a technological discovery instead of the decadence and war that riddled it for nearly a millennia?

Pretty hard to choose just a single event.

WE WUZ EXPLORERZ N' SHIEET

No, there's a reason why pre-history is a well used term. We do not have 'histories' of early humans in an academic sense. Sure, the Big Bang, formation of the Earth, etc, is history in a literal sense, but the modern field of History is not that.

>What is ancient, pre-modern, modern history.
It all depends on the wording. The Spaniard used "Whole History"

right
wrong

>natural history
Natural history has nothing to do with humanities, that's why it's studied mostly by cosmologist and geologists. It's not history in academic sense, since it has nothing to do with humanity or better yet, society.

No historian is with you on this I'm afraid, and if you take the question so literally it makes the whole exercise completely reductive. Just agree that our oldest ancestor kicks the bucket before it reproduces and we're done.

history is stories of the past, geology is the study of rock history

Honestly that nigger rapist should shut up his filthy mouth

>Using academic terms ONLY, for a question that only specified "Human whole history"
Stop being brainlets and stay on topic. Who gives a fuck about what a historian views on the meaning of a term.

Wait. JANNY plz move this to /his/

I would thereby submit that the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the early Universe is the most important event in our whole history.

It was the Fall of Rome

That was prehistory. We're talking about written known events, not Joe Rogan level of speculation

Almost, pole bro. People see a fully romanized west and take it as a completely natural order of events. A world where Rome lost that fight or ended in a draw is definitely something interesting to think about. What would be of the Brits and Scandies without roman influence? What was the future of Hispania under the rule of Carthage? What if it became independent? And wiithout Rome, would the greek culture have survived the test of time?

We will find new planets, retard. Cope harder with your mediocre present.

That was inevitable no matter what. I'd say the Dutch, Portuguese and Brits contributed much more during the age of exploration to the current global order, and not enough people notice that. The Spanish just got a bit luckier and ended up holding some more territory that until this day stays irrelevant for the most part.

My point exactly. There are just too many events and if one weighs more to you is due to your personal bias.

This too.

I've found Alaska as China in EUIV in 1482 so nah.

LMAO at the gays saying that SPAIN discovering AMERICA wasn’t the greatest historical event of all time. Little known fact: Spain actually founded the USA and Germany. you learn something new every day!

>We will find new planets, retard. Cope harder with your mediocre present.
we already find new planets every year, but they are so far away that we will never visit them
and if we ever find a planet with life, the most we can expect is some bacteria or microorganism
it cant compare to the discovery of americas, where people could actually move in and where indigenous mongolians lived for 20000 years

And about the last point: No, I don't mean that you can take ANY historical ocurrence and try to set it up as the most important stage in human history, or that you can label an evidently major event as irrelevant. But this isn't physics, no event has a mathematical value or a defined set of causes and effects that can help you accurately describe it as the number one event in human history.

>out of africa theory
Debunked a long time ago.

>but they are so far away that we will never visit them
This why Spain is such backwater destined to extinction

Agreed

>nd eet iz in dis momento that i Juan Garcia hereby declaro la independence of Los United States

>we already find new planets every year, but they are so far away that we will never visit them
>and if we ever find a planet with life, the most we can expect is some bacteria or microorganism

And how can be so sure? We barely know how to get off this planet. And you know I'm talking about actually setting foot on those planets, not looking at them through a telescope

>it cant compare to the discovery of americas, where people could actually move in and where indigenous mongolians lived for 20000 years

That's irrelevant. You're talking about just 500 years of history. The mongolians there could have lived there for another millenia without making contact with europeans. And the rest of the world was globalizing already.

Did you forget why europeans set sail to the west in the first place?

bitch most spaniards speak and read english entirely fluently while also speaking 3 other languages. the average american thinks he’s a G because he learned from 4 years of high school spanish and duolingo how to ask for the check at a restaurant

Ofcourse not.
Do you think the new world would have never been discovered if not at exact that time? It would have happened then or 10 years later or 20 or 30 or 60 years later. Who cares

no, I don't agree

anyone else think spanish posters are incredibly delusional?

Are Spaniards the new worst posters on this site? They bait at every turn, but, they're not intelligent enough like the Finn's and Aussie's to do it proficiently.

sorry there is no objective category of importance that is transcendent in itself in history

history is a series of connected events that transpired due to cause of another, the conquest of constantinople and the control of the spice route by the ottomans forced the euros to find cheap alternatives to asia for better prices, seeing the new growth columbus wanted to search unconquered land instead of travelling around africa that had been opened by de gama just decades prior, the voyages of columbus cannot stand to scrutiny as events by themselves void of any contextual connection

don't make these stupid assessment again

>nordicist seudo science and posts by retards that don't understand how to read a scientific paper
Yeah, "debunked". Fucking moron.

>sorry there is no objective category of importance that is transcendent in itself in history
FIRE

the dropping of atomic bombs ended all conflict between major countries

eating the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil

the taming of fire was more important

this is actually why you cannot see history in events, you should not apply greco-myth building in modern historic analysis and see things in event-scope

the usage of fire is not an "event", in that it didn't happen once and everybody thought it was a good idea, it happened many many times over thousands of years for people to "get" it, much like using trees to build stuff, many tried and many failed

This, it took 10,000 years for fire to enter common, every day usage in Sapien populations, and was correlated with cognitive changes.
