Aqueducts…?

Chess?

They literally saved Greek science and mathematics from extinction during the dark ages. Sure, Arabic mathematics had its mini dark age when they decided everything should be human words only to make it easier to understand for humans, then they realized that wasn't the way to go.

Most glassware you see in a modern chemistry lab. Oh and not to mention the stills used to make hard liquor.

Technically Arabs just brought over the Indian system. Would be fun if e.g. Slavs brought it instead, and it would be called Slavic numerals.

The Phoenician alphabet descends from the Proto-Sinaitic script though. So a bunch of nomads developed Egyptian hieroglyphs into a script to write proto-Canaanite inscriptions, which was the common ancestor of the Paleo-Hebrew alphabet, the Ancient South Arabian script, and the Phoenician alphabet

Who do you think the Phoenicians were? Do you think a sea faring people wouldn't have picked up different nationalities? That's why racism is so stupid.

On the original point:

Mathematics during the Golden Age of Islam, especially during the 9th and 10th centuries, was built upon syntheses of Greek mathematics (Euclid, Archimedes, Apollonius) and Indian mathematics (Aryabhata, Brahmagupta). Important developments of the period include extension of the place-value system to include decimal fractions, the systematised study of algebra and advances in geometry and trigonometry.

The poindexter mathematicians tell me 2+2=4, but that sounds elitist to me. I'm going to pray on it and see what Jesus says it is.

Bro, nothing riles me up like fake math!

As if x and y can be a number !

Try an Algae Bra

Edit of shame: Fuck, I fed the trolls.

It's not even a fancy name, it's very literally the scientific name of it...the shit you learn in high school science classes

Like the time a city banned "di-hydrogen monoxide" for like a day until they realized it was just a fancy name for H2O lol

That's not quite the story...

Viejo, California put a proposal on its agenda to ban plastic foam containers over the chemicals used in making them. In the proposal they listed "dihydrogen monoxide", among other things, presumably because they likely added it to the list after failing to identify a satire website, and it went viral, mostly in right-wing circles that hate anything that protects the environment.

It never got past the proposal stage, and the "dihydrogen monoxide" part wasn't even the reason why. They never actually banned water and had to walk that back, a Republican lied to you to make you think that.

Do you really think he knows about India? No, not indigenous Americans... NO, not Indiana either!

Yeah but it was more of an unhinged manifesto/screed. Hussain wrote novels, at least one of which was a romance, which is far more impressive

Arab ≠ Islamic Not always.

Many non-Arab peoples also adopted Islam.

Be sure to read the fine print when reading about history..

.

Then he should add that Iranians never made any literature for good measure.

Besides a confident fool in a powerful position.
