Great question.


There is only one real race of significance and they call it the 'Human Race'.

Asia is forever in competition with Europe and they both are forever competing with us.

The oldest written Chinese text that fascinates historians is the work of the ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu -  also known to his followers as "Master Sun Tzu".

The book he wrote dated roughly in the 5th century BCE and was named "The Art of War".

For almost 1,500 years it was the lead text in an anthology that would be formalised as the Seven Military Classics by Emperor Shenzong of Song in 1080.

The book 'The Art of War' remains the most influential strategy text in East Asian warfare and has influenced both Eastern and Western military thinking, business tactics, legal strategy, lifestyles and beyond.

The oldest written European text that fascinates many historians is the "Magna Carta Libertatum" also known as a charter of rights agreed to by King John of England, dated 1215.
