Mediterranean History and Germanic History

The history of "European" people--I wonder if that word is even meaningful--is really distorted.

The mental footprint of the history of the Mediterranean basin world is relatively large and the history of northern Europeans, i.e. the Germans, isn't even a footnote until the middle ages. The story of "Europe", then is told as the story of ancient Greece and Rome, the embarrassing middle ages, then a revival of the faggy splendor of the ancient world via the Renaissance and Enlightenment.

The actual history and story of those Germans--the vast majority of the contemporary white people--is glossed over and even actively suppressed. This is weird.

I think the Mediterranean History has such a large mental footprint because it was written and archived. It's really a part of the story of corporate entities like nations and empires. It was put to paper, so to speak, by the employees and hangers on of those entities. That story became the de facto "world history" for white people, even though a large portion of them, like me, have no ancestors involved in that tale.

In fact, in the minds of many people the "complete" world history is composed of the documents of the Mediterranean Basin world like the Bible, and then an archaeological prequel--"the Out of Africa" story, which is the first story of "white flight" from a bad neighborhood. Lol.

My personal family history flows back into the mists of time outside the context of the corporate language tradition of the Mediterranean basin world, though. I think the roots of that history are found in the mythological tradition.

The myth tradition is like the story of "puppy pregnancy" told in places in India. Puppy pregnancy really seems to encode the concept of rabies. If you deleted the concept of rabies from the story, you would not be able to decode anything very useful from it, though. Unfortunately, I think that happened to the mythological tradition of the Germanic peoples perhaps quite long ago, so the useful information content of the tales of Odin, Thor, Loki, and the Giants is mostly gone. All that's left is entertaining stories.

It's really quite interesting how the stories overlap with other mythological traditions in the world and includes events like great catastrophic floods.
