Sounds very interesting. I would love to watch it! Have you watched it? What do they consider to be the most important reasons?

It is very interesting, and I've only watched the first two episodes.

They believe there are six main reasons that the West came to dominate the world. And they are:

1. Competition
2. Science
3. Property Rights
4. Medicine
5. The Consumer Society
6. The Work Ethic
