Interesting to see the agriculture versus huntgather dialectic. And also the sedentary versus pastoral dialectic within agriculture.

There are a handful of statist places: Vietnam, China, Italy-Greece and a few others, but mostly anarchs.

Iceland, Madagascar, and New Zealand are virgin to man.

    I wish there was a key on what each color meant.

    Also I’m pretty sure agriculture existed in the eastern woodlands of the us by 500 bc
