The closer your ancestors lived to this line 60,000 years ago the dumber they are today.
Why???
To much heat makes your iq 76

Austrália is as far as china from the line.
"Abos iq = Chinese iq"? I guess you are the line op
Gavin Gutierrez
it only counts for humans
Carson Perry
Difficult to build a flourishing civilization there.
I mean, there WERE, but the tropic of Cancer is where the real parties are at.
Brody Edwards
Not even remotely true, it’s more that cold climate agriculture selects for future based planning and higher IQ. Natives of northern Canada are dumb as bricks so are most nomadic peoples. This is why East Asians and Europeans have higher iqs generally speaking. They had to plan ahead to survive harsh winters rather than simply following prey animals for hunting
William Clark
warm weather makes for easy survival, that's why all the dumbasses live in florida.

>To much heat makes your iq 76
Because you never have to select for intelligent people to delay gratification, ration food, be cooperative etc throughout the winter months.
When food is plentiful year-round, you don't have that crucible of selection. Having to hunt and defend from larger animals may have selected for more physical strength and stamina over generations.
Evan Garcia
These guys are right, but people who live in permanent cold aren't very smart either, as they don't need to really plan anything between the warm and cold seasons, since there are none
Daniel Diaz
The environment probably actually promotes impulsiveness in genetic behavior because when you see that meal walking by, you go run after it immediately, or scrounge up every fruit you see lickedy split
Jayden Myers
Same reason computers run faster with better cooling fans.
(Your brain is a computer.)
Jack Cook
>your face when you realize native Americans And Mexicans separated from Koreans 40,000 years ago. This might explain the aztecs.
Lucas James
Women wear less clothes the closer to the equator. Men distracted by this. Degeneracy ensues.
Jayden Young
The same trend as seen in the usa
Nolan Jackson
And Europe
Bentley Ortiz
>Why???
why would you need a fire in a tepid night? why would you need anything other than a roof in a rainy winter? the winds of winter forced the white man to build walls and the walls left him alone with nothing to do but study his fire
Lucas Morgan
See bottom half- this is based solely on ethnicity
Ryder Turner
So you're saying it's the combination of cold plus agriculture, and that's why cold-weather hunter/gatherers aren't as intelligent?
Brayden Rodriguez
Pretty much. If it is hot all of the time or cold all of the time nature doesn't select for being able to plan ahead. In temperate areas with harsh winters anyone who didn't plan ahead would starve off or be too weak to be appealing as a mate.
Joseph Baker
Cold climate cools down your brain and make it work more efficiently.
Levi Russell
Cold weather requires more problem solving in order to survive. Also the plants and animals in the area were easier to domesticate, so proper nutrition over the years mixed with the need to use the brain for survival lead to more advanced cognition.
Colton Allen
Easier to live/Less harsh environment
Samuel Fisher
Nigerian IQ and the Sierria Leone IQ are okay. 86-91 average. Btw African Christian countries have IQ unlike Muslim countries.
Ian Barnes
>The closer your ancestors lived to this line 60,000 years ago the dumber they are today.
today, my ancestors who lived 60,000 years ago are dumber?
Julian Rogers
What about people that live in arid climates and built irrigation systems a la Mesopotamia/Egypt/Persia
Jeremiah Ward
>Cold weather requires more problem solving in order to survive.
Then why do the various native arctic people all have 80-90 average IQ's?
Evan Rodriguez
Higher than Africans but lower than Europeans and East Asians who had plants and animals that were easier to domesticate.
Gabriel Evans
Yet they had much more advanced civilizations than farmers of Central Europe for thousands of years
Romans and Greeks also were advanced and from warm Mediterranean or semi-arid climate
Winters are short and less cold, summers milf and warm
Luis Kelly
> tfw live on that line right now
William Ramirez

Carter Brooks
60,000 years ago, Europeans and Middle Easterners had not genetically differentiated from the ancestors of (East Asians + Papuans/Australian aborigines – contra pol retardation, aborigines are not some special early branch of humanity but quite clearly related to East Asians and Amerindians, and more closely related to Europeans than to any Africans or archaic hominins)
Austin Scott
Polygenic IQ scores are about the same in Sakha and Japanese. agriculture really doesn’t explain anything, it’s stupid whiggish thinking that if anything valorizes the force responsible for making people physically puny, compliant, small-brained, small-framed, uncreative, but numerous, quick to burgeon into disgusting swarms
Henry Hill
Medieval Novgorodian republic in northern Russia was a democracy with high literacy rate even among peasants while Moscow principality at the south was a tyranny.
Seems legit.

Ryder Martinez
natural selection mutt plebe - only the smartest resourceful monkeys could survive in colder climes this system coupled with the natural abundance along that line that leads to constant invasions which select for big dumb apes
Dominic Torres
For thousands of years of course. they settled sooner and started. lets take a look at the time between settling and advancements.
Asher Rivera
of course genetics play a factor as well. the Neanderthal DNA lead to hight maximum evolution capacity of European brains. Then take a look back at history and you can see that picking correct cultural choices also play a factor in human mental development.
Nathan Bailey

You have to plan for drought periods.
Africa is tropical.
Arabia is always desert with some oasis and coastal cities.
Mesopotamia and what's now Turkey and Iran has more climate variance.
