Guns,Germs and Steel Movie
Jared Diamond took his first journey to Papua New Guinea and his the leading expert of bird examinations. People have lived in New Guinea for about 400,000 years. One of Jared Diamond's friends Yali says "Why do white men have so much cargo, and we New Guineans have so little." The New Guineans says that cargo is materials bought by westerns. The 'Colonists' gave them record players when they came to New Guinea to kinda show power. The New Guineans wonder why the Colonists brought them all that stuff. They thought maybe they were trying to help, maybe they wanted to trade, or maybe they were just bragging. The Colonists thought they were genetically superior. But, Jared Diamond disagrees greatly. In the film they stated that, all great civilizations have something in common- they have advanced technologies, large populations, and well organized work forces. Diamond set out to find the division of the world.
