lol again, one of those historically hypothetical statements lol Like saying to France "Oh, if it wasn't for US in ww2, you'd be speaking German."
Well, mein freund, if it wasn't for France we'd still be speaking with a British accent. Cheerio mates!
And during the Ottoman empire, a good majority of the world WAS under Arab rule...and wonder of wonders, that gave rise to some of the greatest advancements in world history, in the arts and in philosophies and mathematics.
If it wasn't for the barbarians, we could ALL possibly be speaking Latin.
If it wasn't for the British, we could be speaking French. Or Spanish.
If it wasn't for global warming, I could be fucking a penguin right now.
