    Souf Europe missed the development of a bourgeoisie in the 11th-13th century and all the rest after that. Also Ottomemes.

      You’re a fricking historically illiterate moron, Central and North Italy had the biggest bourgeoise / middle class in the Middle Ages, Catalans in Barcelona and Valencis also had a huge merchant class

      Greece was its own thing and in its case most of the merchants were Italians or Catalans, and the local merchants were a minority

          Then don’t say South Europe

          Say Greece and South Italy, but that map has little to do with that because Croatia which had cities like Ragusa with a powerful merchant marine are still shitholes today

            Of course many locals aggregated to it, but there's no denying the core of the ragusian merchant class was italian.

      The reason is gdp=tourism.
      No European country besides England ever had real manufacturing and everyone else just outsourced low quality products from England. Greece had a car industry which is now dead.

    I have talked with a couple of Greeks on this very subject. First is a lack of things like raw Iron. Simple and easy to understand.

    Second is the issue of Unions. If you make were the cost to make things inside the country is higher then the cost to make it ANYWHERE else in the med then it will be made anywhere else in the med. Ships? Lost out to the Italians. Tires? The Turks. I could go on.

    In the case of Greece, Ottoman occupation did quite a number on it. As for Germany it was by all means a shithole prior to the Napoleonic wars. Most scientific and technical discoveries came from France and Britain (and to a lesser extant northern Italy). French Reform coupled with unification in 1871 led to the industrial powerhouse that is modern day Germany.

      Because the fr*nch and sw*des had fricked it up in the 30 years war. The medieval HRE was second only to north italy in development. And germany post-1871, finally having the same advantages of central government as britain or france, easily reached (britain) or surpassed (france) them in development.
