In short, society and human culture have evolved very slowly in a period of thousands of years old, from low levels. At that time the desire of people who want to write different kinds of stories the facts and non-fact to provide a valuable legacy to the future. European nations at that time regarded as laying the first stone of a high civilization to cultures outside the European nations are considered to be the remains.

The third phase (beginning 20th century). In the 20th century, most of the countries in the European colonizers each managed to achieve stability of power in the colonies outside of Europe.
