"Cunliffe believes that, rather than being the result of great
leadership, specific intellectual traditions, religion, philosophy, or
even the accidents of history, European advancement is rooted in
particular environmental influences and expansive historical
continuity. He argues that Europe's unique geography is the key to
unlocking its unique civilization."
