If in the year 1411 you had been able to circumnavigate the globe, you would have been most impressed by the dazzling civilizations of the Orient. The Forbidden City was under construction in Ming Beijing; in the Near East, the Ottomans were closing in on Constantinople. By contrast, England would have struck you as a miserable backwater ravaged by plague, bad sanitation and incessant war. The other quarrelsome kingdoms of Western Europe – Aragon, Castile, France, Portugal and Scotland – would have seemed little better. As for fifteenth-century North America, it was an anarchic wilderness compared with the realms of the Aztecs and Incas. The idea that the West would come to dominate the Rest for most of the next half millennium would have struck you as wildly fanciful. And yet it happened. What was it about the civilization of Western Europe that allowed it to trump the outwardly superior empires of the Orient? The answer, Niall Ferguson argues, was that the West developed six “killer applications” that the Rest lacked: competition, science, democracy, medicine, consumerism and the work ethic. The key question today is whether or not the West has lost its monopoly on these six things. If so, Ferguson warns, we may be living through the end of Western ascendancy. Civilization takes readers on their own extraordinary journey around the world – from the Grand Canal at Nanjing to the Topkapi Palace in Istanbul; from Machu Picchu in the Andes to Shark Island, Namibia; from the proud towers of Prague to the secret churches of Wenzhou. It is the story of sailboats, missiles, land deeds, vaccines, blue jeans and Chinese Bibles. It is the defining narrative of modern world history.

1500年之后，基督教文明开始走向兴盛，印度的莫卧儿帝国，中华帝国，奥斯曼帝国开始衰落。最终基督教文明战胜地球上所有的文明，正如马云在一次演讲中说，美国的强大是基于基督教文明下的法律体系。近一百多年，所有的文明都在向基督教文明学习。中华帝国为什么在明代迅速衰弱...

Austria 和 Australia 看错了我也忍了；译者一点对历史的敏感度都没有，实在是基础教育打得太差。上下文已经提示了，把A国和普鲁士和俄国并列提出来。稍有感觉的人也能知道这是奥地利吧？？！！
