Chapter 1027: Greatest Climax
Civilizations do not only progress; they can also regress.
Tasmania was connected to the Australian mainland, and ten thousand years ago, the sea level rose rapidly, turning Tasmania into an isolated small island, cut off from the world. Later, European whites set foot on this island, and they found that the indigenous people didn’t even have the basic skill of making tools, such as simple weapons or tools by tying hard stones or animal bones to sticks to make spears, arrows, or axes. They didn’t know how to!
It was even more primitive than the Old Stone Age!
Even though surrounded by seas and rich in fishery resources, they did not know how to fish.
They would not make clothes even in winter, and simply smeared animal fat on their bodies to keep warm.
The only skill they had was probably making fire!
It’s important to know that the original Tasmanians had advanced hunting and fishing techniques! This means that, during the ten thousand years of isolation, the Tasmanians gradually lost most of the technology and knowledge of their ancestors.
"In situations where there is no external technological input and the population is too low, there may be a regression of civilization in some areas. This is the famous Tasmania Island effect," the rabbit gentleman said at a leisurely pace, "Or, it can be said that there might be a limit to the development of civilization in societies with limited scale."
"What does this have to do with the Doll World?" Bai Youwei asked, puzzled.
The rabbit gentleman: "If human civilization is a material one, then our civilization tends more towards a mental/spiritual one. We have no gender, no age, no skin color, no religious differences—only rich spiritual consciousness, constructing all sorts of worlds.
