How did they become the only relevant people?

Nah pretty sure they did.
As a matter of fact they became part of spain for that duration.
Killed their king or something i think.

Morocco controlled most of Iberia including Portugal for centuries, truly shows how ignorant you are my retardedAmerifat friend

>blacktugal
Look up the battle of the three kings, portugal's king was killed in a battle in morocco which caused a succession crisis and it ended with the spanish monarch taking the throne.

Romans don't exist anymore.
Spanish, Portuguese and Greeks were all relevant in the past, but not anymore, especially Greeks lol.
Celts were never relevant and were used as slaves
Slavs were irrelevant and used as slaves until modern age, though they became pretty relevant in the 20th century
Nordics were maybe only relevant in the middle ages during the Viking era.
Anglos are very much relevant, and they've been since late middle ages.

Lol. Semites are a thousand times more relevant than Slavs and Portuguese for sure.

Yeah tis what i meant.

They hate us, that classic non-white inferiority complex.

Don't bother here. You should post this on /his/ if you want good answers. Or better yet read some book about the topic. /his/ or /lit/ can provide you recommendation

>portugal's king was killed
The king and almost the whole of the country's nobility.

Where are the Germans?

>You should post this on /his/ if you want good answers.

It's better than looking for answer here. I'll tell you that

Portugal shouldve had its remaining nobles integrated and the rest of the land distributed to spanish nobles instead of making it a viceroyalty

Portugal is the Netherlands to Spain as Germany

the peak of the Portuguese empire in extension was much later, probably XVIII - XIX century

The Church’s establishment of monasteries, an institution dedicated to preserving and spreading knowledge across the continent was pretty novel. They evolved into universities which were institutions dedicated to actually expanding on that knowledge and educating people with that knowledge. A large network of academics working together and spreading knowledge to one another quickly sprung up. There were no such institutions as advanced as this outside of Europe.

The large amount of rivers, mountain ranges and forests meant Europe would always be fragmented, a double-edged sword because it meant Europe would always be torn by conflict but at the same time rife with military innovation. The Chinese might have invented firearms but it was the Europeans who perfected them. The strategies and brutality refined and created by the French and English in the Hundred Years War were invaluable in developing a martial culture amongst Western Europeans. In Iberia the Reconquista fostered a righteous crusader spirit which the Spaniards and Portuguese brought with them to the Americas.

The poor hygiene and plethora of domesticated animals found in Europe also meant the Europeans were extremely resilient against disease unlike the peoples they came into contact with, who found even minor European afflictions potentially lethal.

Trade with the Silk Road being blocked off by the Ottomans proved to be a great incentive for European seafarers, who quickly found employment with European monarchs and merchants looking for alternative roots to India and China.

Overall it was the perfect storm. And I doubt anything like it will ever happen again in human history.
