Asia LATAM and Africa are three totally different entities. They are evolving at different paces as they demography are out of lock step.

Moslems are a different story because they are still procreating fast.

While China tried to fast-forward their demographic window (one child policy, choosing boys instead of females), LATAM reached demographic window naturally.

Growth spread by discoveries was a Latino thing. Started in Iberia. Jews quickly got on board with Dutch and British since they wanted to make business and did not care about spreading religion around.

That allowed the British empire to take shape. Defeated the Spanish and defeated the French. Took all power into their hands. Wealth transferred to Europe, and then spread to Anglo countries.

This is finally unwinding. The next 100 years will be nice to watch.
