There is an extreme bias in this series, I am not going to say racist at all however there is a very Eurocentric point of view. How can any series about "Civilisation" be made without addressing Egypt, Sumer and Ur, Persia, the number system 0-9 which was invented India, Algebra from the Middle East, the preservation of mathematics by Arab civilisation. Is it because during this period in antiquity Europeans were still living in tribes and huts? Civilisation without Egypt=WOW!
@theone1087 You stupid idiot, you've been posting your crap again and again and going on with your rant. Can you tell me what Egypt has done for civilization since the year 4,000 BC? Oh yes, they were at the forefront of mummifying techniques for preserving human bodies, and in this area have never been equalled! Bravo.
If you don’t have 11-odd hours to spare, I have posted up the best clips of Civilisation. Google "Luke Smolinski Kenneth Clark" and it shd come up.
